Klasse AIO or P21S would be my choice.

Toyman- Different plastics are, well, different...so it`s risky to generalize.



Of the products on your list, I`ve never had any staining issues from 845. NONE. I use it on black plastic and other such surfaces all the time, just did the textured black roofrack and the black plastic antennas/trim/etc. of the Denali XL with it. When it finally *fails* it`ll sometimes show white staining, but once you clean the surfaces up and reapply it`s good as new again. And that failure won`t happen for a good long time. Of the stuff on your list that`d be my choice, but again, I`ve never done a Jeep so I can`t make any promises.



I`ve *very seldom* had problems from #16 but I use a W-O-W-O application with it in this case.



I wouldn`t *expect* a problem from #26 or the AW, and I`d be pretty confident about that...but it`s just a guess.



I can`t even hazard a guess about the others, but I wouldn`t try the NXT myself.
