has been covered many times before - try a :search: but I think linseed oil was considered the best.

Don't know what silicone you tried but I tried them all on my 300 trim and made no difference, still looked grey. Was thinking about replacing trim until I found the Wynns stuff in Asda and I couldn't belive it - turned black straight away and it lasts a while too, less than £3, worth a try you will be pleasantly surprised.

smooth peanut butter works best - try it in a sarnie as well

you want BUMPER BACK by auto care. i use this on my discovery 1 and the bumpers look like new and stay jet black for ages.
AUTOCARE

tel: 01274 870241
i get it from a local cheapy shop at £2 for a 500ml spray can.
out of all the plastic bumper products i have found this one the best, even better than autoglym products.
