Does it restore the areas that look gray? Mine are looking rough and if it works i'll be getting some soon, can you find the product at any auto store?

Mine were white (I think due to wax ) and had a rougher texture (like sanded)  They came out like new ... It lasts months so far ...
There are several detailing shops online that sell it , I've never found it at the local parts store ... It's pricey but four drops did the entire truck including the wiper shrouds and bumpers

I used "Mothers Brand Back to Black".
I also had that problem on the top of the arches where they were white and rough. I suspect this was because someone used a buffer with wax or buffing compound and they roughed up the plastic.
 
The Back to Black worked out alright for me.  The rough areas aren't too forgiving.  I tried applying the polish with a cammie cloth and the rough areas sucked pieces of the cloth into it. :(  Not cool.
 
I suspect the way of getting it into the rough areas would be an old tooth-brush or something.

I have used this product before. I used the same product of unstable. Should I try this? hmmm... If I can buy it on a local store maybe yes.

the trim fade is from the sun, not from waxing =( land rover should have recalled this. - it happens of every discovery over 100k miles. im going to try a back to black thing from my local fleet farm, if that dosent last/work ill try this BW stuff, if that dosent work its the body shop for all new paint trim. (i know a body shop owner who drives a disco and did it) $150 though.
