And with things like peanut butter you get dogs and stuff licking it off.

vegetable oil :thumbs: everyone has vegetable oil in thier house:)

apply a small amount to the required area and then wipe off the excess, works every time and makes them black as anything:) only thing is in the summer if you dont wipe off all the excess, it goes really sticky and your bumper trims begin to get mistaken for fly traps :P

Shoe polish :thumbs:

I usually use peanut oil but it gradually works less and less each time, I find. My theory is that it leaves a thin layer on the plastic.

few options :

Heat gun
Smooth Peanut butter
Linseed oil

Either of them, then finish off with a back to black plastic bumper restore liquid.
