303 is an excellent product but if want to go a little further... Check out "Griot's Garage" products.
They have a specific cleaner, a protectant and a polish just for plastic. Have the same specific products for Rubber (and every other car product you can imagine) as well.

I was once told to use Ducky's that you can get at boat supply stores. I never got it, though, because I came to find out Ducky's makes a whole range of products and I wasn't sure which was right and the car, a MINI Cooper, was a lease that I turned back in.

If you really want the best, get Gummi Pflege, it is expensive comparitively. I've been happy with 303 when taking care of multiple cars. But now, just have the truck and this stick will last me a couple years:

Same. Very good stuff and will not run in the rain. Water beads up as if waxed. It's expensive but the bottle lasts a long time.

+1 for 303...good stuff.
I've also used a product called "Back to Black" by Mothers, both outside and inside my truck, on plastic and rubber parts. It has worked great for me and does not 'run'.

Back to black works pretty damn good, just have to reapply often. I honestly haven't had any issues with plastic fading on mine.

Dont use armor all on any plastic pieces.. there are chemicals to eat away at the plastic.
ALWAY USE water based for plastics for exterior trim. Chemical guys VRP is always my choice.
