Default Z06 Black Trim: How do you clean it?

I was just wanting some ideas about the best way to clean the black wheel trim and the spoiler on a Z06. I've used a few different things but just would like some feedback to see if there is one really good product to use. Thanks for your help.

If you are talking about the matte plastic areas, consider Black WOW or Einszett Rubber Gummipledge stick. For the painted matte areas I use Klasse AIO as its a cleaner and acrylic protectant, works well under the rear hatch too.

I use Meguiar's Hyper-Dressing full strength. It looks great and lasts a long time. When it does need refreshing it only takes a couple of minutes to put a little on a paper towel and wipe over those areas.
