[rw789]

Hey guys, Please tell me your best products on keeping the fading black bumpers black? Thanks, Rob.

I use something called Tuff Stuff Trim Spray that seems to work for a couple washes or so.. Best that i have found so far but that my opinion.

Its also quite hard to find too so good luck. They might not be making it anymore

Mother's "Back to Black" trim conditioner works really well. Most automotive stores carry it.

Someone mentioned "Black Again". They said it was the best theve used and its on his show cars. I'm going to give it a try this spring.

I use Black Again on my H2 bumpers and have used it the last two years and like it a lot. I also use a VERY THIN application of it on the SUT bed black cover in back.

How long does it last?

Just took advantage of the TSB for the Hummer H2 that says the dealer will pay for the Gator Back coating. The dealer did everything. Bumpers, handle buckets, fender flares, hood plastic, and rear vents. All was paid for in addition to providing me a rental. Looks great and I don't ever have to worry about the plastics getting the chalky look. I will post up pics if interested.

I'll see what it is. I'm at work at the moment though.

First, here's the link http://gatorbackcoatings.com (click cladding restoration on the left then look at the bottom for the TSB link. Print it and take it to the dealer, that way they feel obligated to some degree to do it)

Second, the TSB is TSB # 08-08-111-003 It covers 2003-2007 H2 SUV and SUT

Hope this works out for you......Jamie

Just ease your mind, what Hummer does is to task it out to Chev dealer's body shop, unless you are fortunate enough to have a "Hummer" body shop where you live. Never heard of one though.

Our local Chevy Dealer will do the Gator Back process but only if you are the first owner.

I'm going to print this out for them and see what there story will be this time.

How about the best product to clean the stainless steel tail pipes of say a Corsa Exhaust that has gunk all over it inside and out from a ****ty NEohio winter. I cant get off the black suit either from the internal combustion engine staining my pipes!
