Care for Black Trim Parts?

What do you use to clean the black plastic trim on your cars? Specifically the grille and parts like it look like an area that could use some UV protection. Mine does not look this clean

There is a product called "back to black" which works pretty well. If it is very faded Ive used tire shine before but it doesn't last very long. Whatever plastic conditioner you use, put it on a cloth first then apply it on the plastic and be careful not to get it all over the paint.

Bondo used to have a product called Black Restore but it looks to be discontinued now.

I think the Turtle Trim Restore for $7 works really well for me so far.
