Default Black plastic & wiper dressing

After putting a lot of effort into the wheels & bodywork I find it frustrating that the black plastic & the wipers do not look that good visually.

What do people use to get the black back to looking good & what to use to maintain the look ? I have the 303 Aerospace Protectant to maintain but need a product to restore the black.

Cheers Andy.

I use autoglym rubber cleaner plus on rubber trim and faded black plastics (i buy it in 5ltr cans though dont think it can be bought in sml amounts)use this as a cleaner then go over with autoglym bumper care gel as a conditioner for it if ya like-stays dark ages. prob only needs redoing with bumper care after a month depends on the surface its on,hardly use it on me scoob though just use autoglym vinyl an rubber care on me sideskirts etc after i wash it can get it for £3.99 so hardly worth bothering with anything else.

Mates cars/whatever i do if faded or wont go a dark enough black with a cheap dressing of sorts usually end up with me using rubber cleaner plus. 5ltr can will last me a couple of yr or more(dont use it often)an any autoglym stuff in the regular size bottles can get cheap as above at a shop round here anyway.

Used that stuff on me cars for the best part of 10yrs maybe more. Not the cheapest but never not bin able to get any black plastic or rubber trim looking great combined with bumper care after.
