grill guards

i bought a grill guard a couple years ago for my truck...now it's gotten a little faded. I was wondering if anyone knew of any good products to turn it from gray...back to black(other than repainting it) Thanks.

edit: i just realized i put this in the wront thread...if any mods would be willing to move it to the detailing section, that would be great

What is the grille guard made of? (material)

Is this a metal tubular brush guard? If so, you it seems that it has gotten oxidized and you should be able to polish it out.

yeah it's a black powdercoated steel or whatever they are made from. Any certain type of polish should work?

Collite 845 If its a painted surface the 845 should work great

Try meguiars step 2 polish it works really well. Then slap on some wax. Oh and use a terry cloth towel.

I bought a very neglected used one for my truck and just meguiars #16 and it turned out really nice for a very short period. But, my point is you can bring it back.

I am going to try SSR 2.5 and SSR1 and EX and Nattys blue tomorrow on it to see if that will hold up a little better.
