I bought a 02 Trailblazer LT a little over a month ago that was CLEAN inside and out. The only issue with the exterior was the badly faded, chalky plastic trim around the vehicle. I had tried some Black Magic tire shine, as that stuff make my Xterra's trim look pretty good, but it just wasn't working with the trim on the TB. Back to Black worked ok, but didn't last and streaked badly when it rained.
One day I was in Wal Mart and found a product called Black Max VRT made by Surf City Garage. It was about $8 for a bottle and I said what the [censored] and gave it a shot. I applied it to my trim on my lunch break on a sunny day, and man it worked amazingly well. The sun and hot plastic really sucked the product into the plastic and made it look great. I think applying it in the sun on the hot plastic was KEY.
I even used it on the badly faded trim around the inside door handle and it made it look new. A few weeks later, I reapplied a little just to get more product to soak into the plastic and it's held up extremely well over the past month and a half. Black Max VRT claims to offer UV protection also so that's a plus, and water beads up on treated plastic when it rains or when you give your vehicle a quick spray down. All in all if you're looking for a good product to try out for faded trim, I really recommend this one. Made my Trailblazer look a million times better.
