My car has a plastic part near the windshield that is faded pretty bad - I put on ultimate protectant which makes it look a bit darker, but it doesn't last. I don't really want to have to order Blackwow... Suggestions?

Re: How do I fix faded plastic?
Try giving it a good cleaning with some all purpose cleaner prior to applying a protectant. You have ultimate black in the liquid version and the aerosol version. The aerosol version is more durable but requires a little more prep in terms of masking off the area. If you want another brand recommendation I would recommend Wolfgang Exterior Trim Sealant. It lasts months. Turtle Wax jet black black endura shine trim coating is nice. It's a black dyed product but it lasts months. Works good.

I have used the Wolfgang, and it works really well. I think the key is to make sure that it is thoroughly cleaned with APC before you apply the protectant or sealant. A good clean surface will help the product to adhere better.
