McGuires do a vinyl restoration product that removes the oxidised layer and seals the plastic, returning it to the original colour. Only issues are ; 1) it is a sticky finished surface finish for at least 24 hrs, so dust might undo your hard work if exposed immediately, 2) it has to be re-applied periodically - I found I was getting about 2 months then it starts to fade and go back to the lighter grey colour of the base plastic,. I used to do this when my wife drove the vehicle, but now it doesn't get done anymore.

Brought some 1200 degee tape as I have a few intake hoses wrapped in gold foil.
this tape will hold it in place better, thus looking neater

Apparently baby oil works very well, and I have even heard people smearing peanut butter over it and the oil in that soaks through
