Black Plastic Dressing
Have any of you guys used the product that I've seen on TV call Wipe New? You use it on you black plastics and it suppose to last a long time. Non greasy and a deep dark color.

I would be interested in knowing how well this stuff works. When I first saw the commercial, I was thinking Snake Oil too.
I have had good luck with Bondo Restore Black.
I got the idea for using Bondo Restore Black from this thread: 750 dollars and a day with my X - Ford Explorer Ranger Enthusiasts "Serious Explorations"®
I got the restore black at wally world for $10. It was real easy to apply.
The bezels before:
The bezels after:
The restore black comes with a pretty big applicator, so I used some foam brushes I got at wally world. I got the assortment pack so I would have all different sizes when I apply the restore black to the bumpers & trim:
The instructions say it will last for six months. The bezels have been on the truck since July 8th of this year and they look as good as the day I put them on!!

I think that Wipe New stuff is just Mop-N-Glow in a different bottle. Every decade or so the stuff gets pushed under a new name for a new purpose.
