I just got a bottle of "Back to Black" (Mother's) that worked really
well on my bumper ends and strip.  Supposedly, the really great stuff
is called "Black Again" which (if what I read is correct) is a dye as
well as a preservative and is a favorite among the "concours de
elegance" crowd.  Did not see it at any FLAPS, but you can find it on
the www.
