A heat gun works well for restoring the black trim.

My drivers side door trim is the only piece that is factory appearance black. I used a majic eraser & then sprayed some wd40 & rubbed it in. Wow, what a difference. I still have the passenger side to do.
Will see how long it lasts.
Cheap fix makes her look better.

Here is an option.

Don't need to go to that length at all.

Just get a can or two of flat black spray paint. Clean the trim, scuff it with a scuff pad, clean it again, apply paint in lite coats.

Simple.

For example...

before:


after:


Duplicolor flat black with a wide spray nozzle. That's all.

I don't know why anyone makes it more complicated than necessary. Going on two years and it's only faded just slightly.
