Black trim restore?

[Jeff Doble]

I painted mine with bumper black.  Seemed to work ok, just make sure you put on a lot of thin coats and not one thick one.  Check here for my before/during/after pictures:

Anyone have any recommendations as far as a product that will restore the black rub strips around my '86 4kq?  They're beginning to fade noticeably--you 
can see it on the rear bumper in this picture, in spite of the fact that the car's just been rained on:

I've heard of stuff that sprays on, and stuff that rubs on, but no one I've talked to has had personal experience with the products.  Any BTDTs would be very 
helpful.  Thanks!
