Default Black Plastic Protectant

Just curious as to whats best to use on black matt plastic fenders and bumpers...I was told by a professional auto detailer to avoid using anything with silicon in it as it would eventually create a unsightly build-up and difficult to remove...

Best Regards,
3 tons

303 protectant, I use the cleaner first and then the protectant (you don't have to do this though protectant is enough) and everything looks brand new, usually do it about once a month or so.

303 protectant! Do a simple search with just 303 and man you will see some posts. I love it and have used it ever since I got my first rhino liner in 2000. Unreal how it "Degreys" plastic.

I use Mothers Back to Black followed by Aero 303 UV protectant. About twice a month in the summer I use TurtleWax liquid ICE, on the body including all the trim.

carsytems refinish/restorer. I put two coats on my Jeep when it was brand new and have not had to do a single other application of ANYTHING except soap and water for 7 months now. I will put on another coat at some point this spring/summer, but honestly for exterior plastic trim you will have a hard time finding a better product IMO.

I normally use CoverAll....it works well with getting the plastic back to black, but still think it's a bit too glossy sometimes.....it can be used on almost everything though.

303 hands down. It's also a UV protectant.
