Hi does anybody have a good method for making the black plastic bits black again?

Autosol used to sell back to black, which actually worked for a good proportion of parts I used it on. Can't seem to find it any more.

Might be because it contained something that is now banned.

Some of the black finishing waxes do a reasonable job, but they don't last very long.

Anybody got anything they use?

Cheers

I'm trying Armor All Protectant spray at the moment and it's giving reasonable results.

Haven't tried it myself but peanut butter is supposed to be good??? something to do with the oils from the nuts or something, don't know how long it lasts though?
