I am sure I am behind the times...just heard about Mothers Back to Black for exterior black plastic, vinyl, rubber, etc.

who uses it? How are the results? Gonna have to check it out.

 

When first used it on the bed rails, looked great. After a week, it dried white in the grain, looked terrible. I threw it away. I now use Bondo Restore Black. It's a dye and lasts for months. I painted the cowl with Krylon Fusion and at some point, will do the bed rails.

 

Hmmm! I mainly wanted it for my rails, mirrors and such. Maybe I WON'T try it.

 

I havent heard anything good about it. Mostly that its crap. Look into blackwow. About that only stuff i havent heard anything bad about, cept thats its expensive.

 

Yeah but a little goes a long way.

Back to black will take wax off trim but that's about it

 

don't waste your money on 'back to black' If it's sun bleached you might want to try Showroom New Restorer, it's a dye, after a year I'm still happy with the results. I have never used Black Wow but some on this site speak very highly of it.

 

I did happen to have good luck with it. The plastic side steps on my stepside were bleached almost white. It took a good 15 min of rubbing it in but I got them black again. This stuff seems to take some elbow grease but it does what I want.

 

I've used Back-To-Black for years with good luck. Not sure why so many guys around here pan it, as it has kept the plastic trim on my vehicles looking good for years......

 

I actually had great luck with it. I've used it more than once, but like previously mentioned it worked the best for me with wax stains on mouldings and trim and such. But I have nothing bad to say about it. For what I needed it for, it did great.

 

It's an okay product. Does take a bit of extra rubbing in and buffing off to get it how you want it though. Try some for yourself.

 

It runs as soon as it rains

 

I use it once and a while, but I really don't find it does much more than Amorall in terms of how long it holds up. It does make water bead and definitely gets it back to black, it just doesn't hold up for as long as I'd hoped. I'll be trying some black wow when I can. For now, I just use back to back every time I wax.

 

i use it every once and awhile, i does bead water pretty well and normally last a week or two for me. all of my black plastic will be painted soon so i wont have to worry about it lol.

 

in my opinion, it is one of the most useless detailing products on the market. there are literally hundreds of better products out there.

you could go to wally world and pick something with a blindfold on that would be as good or better.

just my opinion .. based on my experience.

 

I just ordered BLACK-WOW........
really haven't been happy with anything.
KRYLON is my next project....
