Rear Decklid

Hello all,
I have a 2010 Mustang with the black rear decklid. It's starting to fade a bit, and I'm using Mothers Back-To-Black on it, but it just doesn't seem to last. Any ideas on what would work better?

Do you mean the panel? I would not but back to black on paint. Turtle wax black box spray then turtle wax ice will refresh it.

I've heard good things about 303 Aerospace Protectant, just ordered a bottle today.

No, it's not the paint, it's the black plastic panel on the trunk. Like this.

Sorry - it took my son pointing out that my rear panel was starting to "fad" instead of "fade".... Old age is killer.

Back to black is the best. However it's temporary. Try the black box detailed by turtle wax.

I'll try the 303 and the Black Box. Thanks for the recommendations.

Duragloss Rubber & Flat Black Dressing (RBD) #271 : Amazon.com : Automotive Duragloss Rubber & Flat Black Dressing (RBD) #271 : Amazon.com : Automotive

This is the very best I've tried - low sheen, lasts for at least a half a year through weekly washings. Highly recommended.

I have seen this and just never tried it. I guess I will have to pick some up. Love this forum.
