Default Best product to shine stock plastic bumpers

I just washed the Jeep. My bumpers and rails are dull and turning whitish.

Have you found a good product to bring the new look to the plastic?

I like "back to black" It works but it is a PITA to get off the paint. I use a rag just for it and wipe carefully. It seems to work really well on everything but the hood latches but I think it's cause they are too far gone. Oh, I think it's made by Mother's

try some peanut butter. It honestly works. Get a tooth brush and smudge it all over your bumpers and then wash. You will now have black shiny bumpers that will outlast any other products and wont leave them with an oily residue. Try it

Back to Black and I use a 1" sponge paint brush to apply it near the paint area....To me it works better than 303. just my 2 cents.

I actually just use the turtlewax ice. Its really nice because it works to protect the paint AND plastic. It only lasts ~6 months but I try to wax every 6 months anyway.
