That black plastic on the wheel flares/mirrors/top of front bumper

What works well to clean/shine this junk up? I just noticed the fronts of my wheel flares (black textured style ones) are stained white thanks to this stupid rock salt what would get that crap off and protect it?

Mothers "Back to Black" usually does a great good of making textured black trim look brand new. Sometimes you have to do a few appplications to get it to "soak in".

Shoot, we used something back when I worked in a bodyshop that was awesome, but I can't remember the name What about Armor All?

No armor all, it turns white after a while.

That back to black stuff works ok. I was thinking about it and wondered if black shoe polish would work if you were careful. Ive never polished any shoes but it was just a thought.

Josh way too much black plastic on your rig to shine.

Ive been using armor all on mine and it still looks fine after a year

how about a can of black spray paint

I'll pick up a bottle of back to black soon, it just snowed again so it looks like it'll be a while before I'll bother trying to get the salt off

Lexoil in the blue bottle, will not stain or run off as easy as the rest.

Go to your local RV or Marine supply store and pick up a bottle of 303 Aerospace Protectant. You can put 303 on your dash, rubber seals, interior and exterior plastic parts. 303 contains no silicone and will not hurt painted surfaces. I originally bought 303 for my tonneau cover, but it's all I use now for plastic/vinyl surfaces. You have to apply 303 about once every month or two, but it does a good job restoring surfaces to like new condition without the artificial silicone look. 303 isn't cheap, but I bought the large bottle and it has lasted for a long time and I still have alot left to use. I simply apply 303 to a cotton applicator and apply it to the surface to be protected and then wipe off with a cotton towel. I even use it on the steering wheel and it doesn't get slippery like the silicone stuff.

Here's the link if you are interested.
