I just took it off and painted it with rustoleum truck bed coating. A lot less work and when I'm cleaning the jeep I just spray some tire shine on it.

 

I use Black magic. but the only thing on the outside of my jeep that is plastic is the door handles and my snorkel.

I also use it on the interior works great for my needs.

 

303 isn't going to restore a finish, it's designed to prevent it from going bad.

I applied 303 to my plastics on my 2012 within days of purchase and reapplied every couple months. None of the plastics showed any signs or aging or fading for the couple years I owned the vehicle.

Use 303 as soon as you can to protect. If it already needs restored, look for other solutions.

 

Use Forever Black. God stuff

 

I think I'll give that a try next. I've been using Detail Doctor and it works pretty good. I'm almost out now. However, I find I need to redo it about every 2-3 months and it leaves a sticky residue feel to the plastic when 1st applied which I obviously don't like.

I believe Detail Doctor is likely not much more than Linseed Oil, so you could get similar results picking up a bottle of that instead.

Someone stated earlier that Forever Black is a plastic black dye. Does it last long? Does it leave ugly black streaks after awhile? Tell us some of the negatives we need to be aware of so we don't have to learn for ourselves.

 

I have a 2008 JKU Rubicon and I use Mothers Back to Black followed by Armor All and my bumper goes from ugly grey with mud stains to brand new again. It needs to be done periodically. The bumper is 7 years old and looks like new after a Back to Black/Armor All treatment
