Kiwi Scuff Cover for shoes works great for re-coating bumper inserts, rubber, and other exterior trim. I've tried Back-To-Black, Forever Black and multiple spray vinyl/rubber treatments. Forever-Black wasn't too bad, just that it is a little tougher to apply with the big sponge they provide and the cost @ $10 for the kit. The Kiwi is $2.
The Kiwi Scuff Cover has a small round sponge applicator at the top of the 2/5 ounce bottle. I just got through coating the front bumper valance and front/rear bumper inserts on the BII. Prepped with denatured alcohol...then liberally applied the Kiwi. After it dries, which is fairly quick, apply some vinyl treatment spray onto a cloth and wipe off any high spots. It also provides a more even finish by flattening out the glossy spots where too much was applied. Any over-coverage onto chrome or paint wipes off with a damp sponge. Results: hard to tell from newly installed parts (you won't be disappointed) I did the hard vinyl backs of the side mirrors on an F-250 and a BMW 5-series a year ago and it has not faded or rubbed off at all on either vehicle.
