I've used 303 Aerospace on plastic parts successfully. I've used it in automotive and also in a crammed cockpit to keep plastics looking good

Default Used a heat gun to restore faded fenders

I bought a $22 Heat gun off amazon and restored my faded fenders. It worked perfectly. I can't wait to restore the rest of my plastic around the truck. Everyone thinks I bought new fenders and it makes my truck look brand new again.

I use this for all exterior black plastics. Use as directed and it will last a year minimum. I used to use back to black but had to re-apply every week

I use Solution Finish and it works awesome. Lasts at least a year and makes it look like new.

I will have to give them a try if it lasts at least a year. I just don't like reapplying each week or after each car wash
