Default Sun roof trim

I recently traded my '02 Classic for an '04 two-tone TE with a sun roof. I've noticed that the rubber sunroof seal/trim is a good bit lighter in color that the surrounding top. Anyone know of a good product for making it darker? [:I]

PT-Tom, ptron gave good advice but you should use the more gentle approach first. Many times people get sloopy when they wax their car and get wax/residue on trim and molding. If this is the case you should use some all purpose cleaner and a small detail brush (toothbrush also works) to remove the wax. Then go over it with some water based dressing, this should solves the problem without using the back to black. The majority of the time I use back to black, or forever black is when trim is so badly faded that nothing brings it back to life. Back to black actually dyes the material black. YOu must mask off the paint and surrounding area before doing this. Gary
