Any back to black stuff, i use some turtle wax stuff, Put some on my novas bumpers last year and they didnt fade a noticeable amount for at least 6months.

Or use a hair dryer, works really well.

Heat gun - semi permanent too. Just be careful, take your time, do a small bit at a time and don't let it get tooo hot. You'll see if change colour.

For the love of god don't use boot polish as it will not come off again properly and will look shite / patchy after a while.

Saw this thread linked from GC

Yeah, don't use shoe polish, it was awful

I thought the Chemical Guys New Look Trim Gel worked quite well (on the front bumper at least) but didn't last a massive amount of time.
