I especially like that it dries to a matte black and is not glossy.

Forever Black is a liquid in a plastic bottle with a round foam applicator attached to the bottle. The product is applied just like liquid shoe polish. I used a foam paint applicator to apply it close to the body and side marker lights because it gave me more control over the application. The flares on my LJ were badly faded from the sun and also had some other stains on them, so it took two applications of Forever Black to make them look new again. It is very easy to apply, it dries quickly, and it looks as if it may be a year or longer before I will have to reapply it.

Someone else tried my suggestion. Hmmmmmm seems like it may not be a bad product.

I tried Udder Cream once and it worked quite well. Smear a little on, rub it in, and wipe it off. Brings out the black in the plastic fenders and bumpers. It's made from comphrey plant extract and cow urine. Doesn't smell too bad, but takes a bit to get used to. It's cheap and you can buy it from most small town drugstores. Also keeps your hands from drying out.
