Restoring Black Trim
 

My black trim, most noticeably the side moldings, have lost some of their black "pop" over the years and now are more of a very dark grey. What do you guys use to bring them back again?

get a good car wash soap and a toothbrush or a soft interior brush and scrub lightly and see how that goes

I like Stoner's Trim Shine, Adam's VRT or Griot's Garage Vinyl & Rubber. Adams probably the best

Trim Shine is great. You can also use a heat gun to (carefully) warm plastic trim. Works great.

A good cleaning to removed any dirt and contaminants from the texture and then a plastic/rubber trim dressing. As mentioned, Adams VRT is popular (I have not used it) or I use CarPro Perl which seems to hold up well. You'll have to reapply semi-regularly to maintain a deep black matte finish.

Once you restore your trim if you could let the community know how it went and what process you chose (results and review) it?d be helpful for other forum members.
