I haven't noticed the trim fading as much as it did on the BMW's I once drove. They faded almost immediately. I think the trim on the H2 is pretty good in comparison.

I use mother's back to black, it works great. Seems like it will wash off after a wash or two though. But it does make the plastic look like new and it just wipes on. Very easy to use.

I didn't put it on heavy the first time I used it so after a few drive through washes and it was back to crap. This time I used it I used a whole bottle and just soaked the crap out of anything black and let it sit for about 15 mins, then I took a shop rag and rubbed it in real good leaving a pretty soaked/wet finish. It has been gloss black for a month now, even after a few washes and rains!

The dealerships use armordillo for warranty fading. I had the dealer apply the amordillo on my truck and it didnt last for 2 or 3 washes but rather 3 or 4 months. Since then ive bought it online and it works like a dream. Ive used back to black and it pales in comparison to the armordillo.
