WD40 will do it, keep away from rubber though.

For all the hints and tips guys, it is more than I expected and also confirms I am not the only one going grey...
![]() I have ordered some CarPlan for starters... ![]() But if I can bring myself to buy some Smooth Peanut Butter I might try it on one handle... ![]() At least it will be good for a snack when I get caught in a jam... ![]() ![]() The GREEN One...

I use Autofinesse Revive. Works very good and lasts a long time.

I see you've not poo poo'd my peanut butter tip so I'll do another tried and tested one..........use a hot air gun. This method can rejuvinate faded plastics but you need to practice to find the technique.

My dad uses black boot polish on the front bumper of his motor home and I must say it doesn't look bad at all. It lasted a few weeks in the south of France in summer including a good power wash to remove the flies when they got home

I have found Armor all very effective. Used it for years and you have to reapply but looks good for little effort.
