u aint using AG right then pal, use it on mine, and it lasts forever with just little top ups every 3 weeks, the key is to build it up, and when i aply it i use a aplicator pad, then buff off... inbetween aplications i just buff over the bumpers.. mine look shinly black all the time

If you do the old heat gun trick on the plastics and top it up with some black wow/AG bumper care, it'll last for a few months. Just beware of the dust black wow attracts.

hi have you tried  'boiled linseed oil'  its about £3.50 for a bottle  its available from most diy shops

you only need a little bit on a lint free cloth and it brings the colour back with little effort looks like

new and lasts for ages  :cool:

Linseed oil is messy but good. Don't get any on the paintwork though.
