Trims - Body

[casual1974]

What's best to bring body trims back from sun/weathered grey back to black? Would you recommend remove and spray? Or replace?

It's probably worth understanding that the grey colour happens as the oils in the plastic dry out. This is on the surface only which is why applying heat with a heat gun is a popular method of bringing the oils to the surface and restoring the colour, however it runs the risk of altering the finish as the texture on the plastic melts. So best left for very old plastics on a van that is not precious. Though has the added benefits of flattening scuff marks.

Adding oil based treatments will restore the black colour but will often need several applications over time and would make painting, should you ever want to, problematic.
