Chemical guys VRP or Adams VRT
Chemical Guys has a plastic restorer. Multiple ones actually.
Mothers Back to Black. Period.
All plastic. And my tires rock after a quick wipe.

Cerakote's plastic trim product is the best I've used. Most I've tried last a week or two at most - this has been running strong for over a year with lots of sun exposure
This is what I've read when researching, but haven't used it myself.
Cerakote product seems much better than Mother's Back to Black. My trim still looks dark black after two months from the Cerakote treatment.

This stuff is great, and lasts longer than others I've tried.
Sometimes, if the black plastic trim is older, you might have to rub in a 2nd spray to even out the coat...but it gets it looking good again, and lasts a while

Ignore the water stain, but this is after ~10 months in the sunmefoghorn said:

This shows the treated vs untreated area of the cowl. Pretty impressive IMO
If you got trim thats bad oxidized there's video on youtube of people hitting it lightly with a heat gun and it takes it right off.
That works for a bit until the oxidation comes back even worse. It's also really easy to screw up your trim if you aren't carefulStat Monitor Repairman said:

Trim Serum for interior. Cerakote for exterior. Everything else is just a wax/oil that fades quickly after rain or wash.
303 spray
Thank you for all the suggestions.
