How do you bring back the shine in running boards

[hope4me2]

Hi, I have a 2007 Ford Expedition with the shine lost in the running boards and back bumper. Is there anything you can put on them to bring back the shine. I would welcome any information thanks

I've had pretty good luck with Mother's Back to Black.

Note that anything you put on the running boards to make them come back to life will also make them slippery.
I don't use the running boards as a step but my wife does and informed me if I ever did that again she would kill me.

That is if it doesn't kill her first. LOL Just kidding

I use ArmorAll. But does make it supper slippery!

i use the meguiars interior stuff, gives it a nice shine, not that slippery and it last for weeks even when it gets wet it still looks clean...

x2 on the mothers back to black works great but slippery on running boards , you can also use ice wax paste wax it is safe for the trim pieces, i used it on my mirrors and bumper step pad when i forst got the truck and it brought the shine back

Pledge or Endust both work well - yes, the same stuff you use on your furniture. It cleans it much better than ArmorAll, and lasts longer too. It also works wonder to remove/cover any wax residue on textured plastics. A nice gloss w/o being too slippery.

or bed line them to give them a textured feel. they will be back to black. and if they ever fade spray them again or even armor all them. and the texture keeps the slippery down.

I've used this stuff on a few different vehicles and it works great and is not slippery at all. In fact, I used it on the wheel well mouldings of my 06 F150 FX4 ( which were dark grey plastic) and it made them a nice black satin, they looked better than new.

It lasts a long time too. I used it to remove wax residue from the textured, unpainted mirrors on my Excursion. No idea how long it had been there (P.O. did a crap detailing job at one point), but it worked great.
