Mother's Back to Black has worked great for mine. It has even lasted through a couple of hard rains without streaking so I'm pretty well sold on it. You can find it at any auto part retailer, it's in a red bottle with a red and black label.

I must be the only one who thinks the cladding is fine as it is, dry.
I only have experience with two products so far…
Mother’s Back-to-Black & TurtleWax’s new ICE.
Of the two, personally I prefer the ICE; hands down, 10,000-times more so.
Although I’ve only had the ICE on there for a few days - already I can tell you that it goes on a whole lot easier; it’s far more resistant to rain and carwash-induced thinning/streaking; and it doesn’t have that sticky-wet residue that attracts road grime like a magnet.
In all fairness thought, the ICE isn’t perfect…
Instead of being sticky, it has a strange sort of dry statically-charged attractive force to it, much like an old vinyl record album that’s been left to sit out for a long time in a dusty room. --- Perhaps it’s just the time of year, but it seems to actively reach out and grab every single bit of pollen within a 5-mile radius and leave it loosely adhered to the cladding – oddly enough, in some rather curiously unnatural semi-circular patterns. --- But after a quick rinse at the carwash, it’s as good as new… the water beads-up and rolls right off.
I’ll report my long-term impressions over in the ICE Thread![]()

Personally I've gone with 2 products...I use Back2Black first and let it dry overnight or wait until I wash the VX again and then I hit it with Eagle 1 Tire Shine (Silicone of thick viscosity) and let that stand overnight to "soak" into the cladding. I believe that Back2Black kind of dries out the cladding (plus my VX is never garaged and the cladding gets sunbleached!) so I've gotten good results letting the Eagle 1 Tire shine soak into the cladding which seems to give it a pretty long-lasting rich look. If you go over the Eagle 1 T.S. with a towel it won't look too greasy afterwards either so it won't attract dust real bad. Just my .02
