Use Meguiar's products, they work quite good.

In conclusion, you can buy the better one if you have lots of cash and vice versa.

Depending on how bad the trim pieces are you may clean them nicely with some window cleaner and a MF towel. If it looks like they need something a bit stronger then try a polish. I have used ClearKotes Vanilla Moose with excellant results on these trim pieces and the great things is that the Vanilla Moose doesn't discolor the black trim and it can be used on glass with great results also.

Hope that helps,
Anthony
