use armorall on all the plastic trim on the outside of your vehicle everytime you wash your car. It is repetitive but thats the only solution for faded black plastic.

I would recommend using a silicone based trim shine. It will hold up a lot longer than the standard Armorall.

For how long does it last? If I wash my car once a week - do I have to reapply the product? :rolleyes:

i use 303 aerospace protector on all black panels. it lasts long and does not leave a white residue.

That's only fractionally longer than Mother's Back to Black. I thought Forever Black was PERMANENT as indicated on the box:dunno:

I used a similar product like forever black and it left streak marks on the black trim on my pathfinder. Use the armorall which will last until the next raining. silicone based products gradually form film deposits which are very hard to get off. You'll be happy with armorall, its about the only thing its good for.

Check out our very own Detailing Forum. This issue was just discussed with some suggestions. Phil, our resident detailing expert and forum sponsor, has a brand new product he recommends for this trim.
