Mothers 6108 Back To Black Bumper and Trim Dressing. 8 oz.

If you are restoring a 35 years old BMW classic you need only the best and this (as all Mothers products I have used so far- and they are many) is among if not the best.
Several applications (every week)during the first 3 months have restored all rubber to its new like condition and this brings not only a better look but also brings back the purpose of seals all over the car. From noise reduction to air tightness to better working AC and well,many other advantages.
Believe me, I don't own the company!

I have read all the reviews for Mother's Back To Black, and frankly, I am a little surprised that no one has mentioned the "rain factor" with this product. I used to use this on my Volvo bumpers because over the years, they had faded from black to grey. The Back to Black did make the bumpers look nice; however, as soon as the next rainfall, the stuff would run off the bumpers and cause really ugly streaks. Likewise, every time I washed the car, applications of the Back to Black became an additional step during the washing process. Well, I got tired of that really fast.

For those who use this product and love having to continually apply and re-apply it over and over again, enjoy! However, for those who are looking for a permanent remedy to your faded trim, use Forever Black. It is also available here on Amazon. I applied 6 coats of the stuff back in September of last year (2007). As of right now, the bumpers on my car look BETTER than they did on the day I bought the car (3 years ago). The bumpers look fantastic and the Forever Black is not affected by rain, or any other weather conditions. Actually, I am quite shocked that Forever Black is not better known that it is.

I use this on my Chevy Avalanche which has a lot of plastic trimming. I prefer using this over Armour-All as this one does not attract as much dust as other products do. It is runny like the other person posted, but use a sponge appropriate for your vehicle. It works and lasts longer than armour-all. i would recommend

I almost gave up trying to restore my trim until I found this on message board. Wow is all I can say. Trim is nice an shiny now. Not only does it shines but it also protects and cleans the trim. No more faded black color and it lasts for a few weeks! I must admit I was a little skeptical at first. One gripe its very very liquidy so it runs all over if u put on too much. Would be nice if it was a little thick.

I bought two more bottles of this and gave the remnants of the first to my neighbor to try. Turned oxidized "gray" back to black. I didn't need to buff on coarse surfaces - only on smooth rubber surfaces. Highly recommended. It is a little "greasy" so avoid getting onto painted surface - simply wipe clean if you do.
