Had the same issue with plastics as you. I used a heat gun and bought some forever black via eBay.

Well the Wurth Stuff arrived and done first coat. Once the bumpers are done I will write up my thoughts with pictures.

When I worked for a large multi car dealership (many moons ago) the valeters used Wurth valeting products.. (Peugeot/ Suzuki/ Renault/ Citroën/ Honda).

Before I shell out £25+ for the Wurth stuff kzracing, what's the verdict and is one 75ml tube enough?

I currently use Autoglym but find I'm having to redo it every three months or so, so I'm looking for something a bit more permanent

From tests one tube is enough to do front and rear bumper plus enough left over to do wing mirrors and door handles.
Also car has been left outside and no signs of fading.
