I agree with JeepeaterH3, I use Mothers Back to Black and it works great. Have not tried the other. Mothers is a white wax/polish very thin that you put on and then buff off after it dries.

I used a product called Black Chrome today on the black plastic around the wheel wells. Turned out great. It is for all plastic and vinyl trim.

The Mequiars is great but doesn't last all that long. I have some stuff in the garage that has been fantastic but can't think of the name. I'll have to check and add that later. ( experience is over-rated and old age sucks )

When you use products similiar to Armor All it drys out your plastics and causes the white. Its best to never to put anything on your black plastic and rubber, though there is some real good prroducts at this website.

The best product I have used on the plastic bumpers in Vinylex. It lasts a long time, is easy to use and has Uv protection in it. I have also used the Meguair's Gold Class Trim detailer and like the job it does but it doesn't last nearly as long.

Vinylex sounds like what I'm looking for. Got to have the UV protection for this Arizona Sun. Did you order it from a website or buy it in a store?

Nevermind bud, went to their website. Going to try Pep Boys.

Got it at Pep Boys. I went to their website and found the chains that carry it. Lots of the larger automotive chains carry it. Great stuff. Guess I don't have to dig around in my garage and repost later now.

I use Back to Black. It does not leave a greasy residue that you will get when you use Tire Shine.

Dont get me wrong Tire Shine looks great untill you lean against your bumper to get something out of your cargo area and it gets all over your nice dress khaki's right before a lunch meeting with a new client.
