You only ever need two tools in life. If it moves and it shouldn't use Duct Tape. If it does not move and it should, use WD40.

Gently warm them up with a heat gun until you see the grey disappear and the black return.. lasts for months .. the apply some boiled linseed oil (sparingly) and you will have trim that looks like new and lasts for a very long time
