Default Back to Black

I am polishing up an older car (1990 Eagle Talon Tsi). It has alot of exterior black plastic trim.

The car has been well maintained but these pieces could use some refreshing.

Is Back to Black a good product or is there something better?

Thanks!

i have used several similar products, but not that specific one...
they are all pretty similar in my experience-
some take more than one coat.
if the exterior plastic/ vinyl only needs refreshing you might try 303 or vinylex. they are real preservatives instead of just cover-ups.
the back to black type products are good for neglected parts, imo- but for plastic that is in good shape i would first try 303 or vinylex. if they dont get it then i would go to the product that you have.

I've used back to black and think it works pretty well. use it liberally and make sure to wipe off excess. I would do two to three thin coats, I found it gets best results.
Other option that works well and possibly lasts longer is 303 cleaner then 303 protectant.
