  • A few questioned our recent video using a heat gun to restore heavily-damaged, UV-bleached black plastics. We show in a single, uncut video how a heat gun is the best way to bring back faded black plastics, and we test 3 top name plastic restoration dressings.

    In my experience, the best restoring product for putting black down on porous plastic is Solution Finish. My favorite protectant is Aerospace 303. Use 303 before damage and you will most likely will never need a heat gun or a restoration product.

    Thanks....I am doing the hood on my 1996XP. Also, my Harbor Freight heat gun lasted about 6 hours before it burned itself out.

    Thanks for your awesome video. I’ve already put a coat of product on before seeing your video. Can I use a heat gun with the product already applied? Or should I use rubbing alcohol to remove it and then do the heat gun?

    Hey Kevin,

    I did a similar test on my sea doo jet ski's faded trim. I threw everything a had at it from black trim polish to tire foam. My conclusion was that nothing worked...until the next day. As a walked by the next day i noticed that almost all of them worked, it just took a long time to absorb into the trim. /shrug!

    Great video Kevin.... Really like the versatility of your videos, helps us newbie ski owners. Question..... did you kick the neighbors dog a few times? Is that why he's barking profanity at you??? 🤣

    I sure wish there was a better product I use an open flame shrink wrap torch, so many stickers tho I wish there was a better product to avoid having to heat it. Zep's enhance all works well after heating it but just like all the other products it still has to be heated :(
