    Hello TW I was wondering what is the best way to attack the bumper molding to make it to look new again. Spray can? Plasti dip? Product I can spray to restore it? I’m planning on painting chrome on the bumper to satin black. Thank you.

    Solution Finish is one of the longest lasting ones and it's only good for about a year. You can extend it with a ceramic coating or other protection products.

    Its worth it. This is not something you will have to reapply every week.

    I also had good luck with Gtechniq C4. Expensive but it can be used on all exterior plastic. I have gotten well over a year out of it.

    Another vote for Solution Finish.

    I'm not familiar with ceramic, other than it being something you put on painted surfaces. You're saying I can apply something over the Solution Finish plastic? If so, what product do you recommend?

    As in ceramic coating or the ceramic spray sealant products. Most of the newer "sealants" are ok to use on all surfaces. Older protection products like wax would just end up staining the black surface.

    An actual ceramic coating like Carpro Cquartz UK one of the ones from Gyeon or Gtechniq.
