When my bumpers were black........... many moons ago.... i used some sort of black liquidy polish stuff. 
 
Basically put the stuff on, leave it for a few minutes then buff it. 
 
Lasted considerably longer than back to black aswell.

use the shoe polish that comes in the little bottle with the sponge on top - you'll be amazed at the outcome

Bumper and Trim polish i think it's called.  That what i use on mine anyway.  Comes in a black bottle, and is about £4 for Halfords like you said.  Miles better than Back to black, as you can just slap it on, and dont have to worry about getting it on your paintwork, as it'll polish that too  .  Also takes a good few washes to fade  .

Funny enough, Vegitable oil works, just rub it in after a wash, my mate told me this and i laughed it off, but then i used it, he laughed at me.
