Dull/faded exterior plastic trim help

[celticchrys]

Hey guys, what would people here recommend for cleaning/polishing up/painting the exterior plastic trim bits on my '04 ST? It is all looking rather dull, and I'd like to improve it. What do you all use?

Still looks great over a year later.

Thanks for sharing this! Does the heart good to see the difference in the wiper trays, alone.

I actually used Wipenew on mine. Dramatic difference. Lasted about 15 months of so before it began to wear, so I hit it again. It had been on about 2 years when I sold the truck last month and it still looked really good. And yes, I am picky...

If you want a more permanent repair, use Trim Kote:

To get the color right on mine I had to mix the black and gray together.
