is that your moonroof? i think any silicone spray or those tyre shine wax should do the job... no harm trying.. it wont crack your rubber
 
for a longer lasting, definitely black 9 9 look...

use kiwi shoe wax... it last longer...

will it make my hand or clothes dirty when i touch it?
 
ok, this is what u do...

Get yourelf:

1> Kiwi black shoe wax
2> Toothbrush (old / used.. ready to be disposed)
3> an old cloth

Then...

1> Take the Tb and scrape some black wax from the tin itself..
2> Scrub on the rubber areas that u want that "renewed' looks.
3> Keep Scrubbing as if u r polishing your shoes..
4> Let it haze for awhile...
5> Buffer with the old cloth...

Your old cloth will be the one stained with the black wax (or watever remains
after that)...

Once u r done.. run yer fingers through it... u wont even stain it...
but make sure u wash yer hands first la.. nanti yer hands is already black
then u run over it and say.. AIK!?!!? BLACKIE TIPU WAN!!

hehehehe
 
autosol are for chrome parts ler... u apply to these black lining.. habis..
everything turns white
 
er the last time i use autosol to clean my windscreen and mirrors .. then i accidently terkena the rubber lining .. then soon pin go add some on it and wipe ..

the result a lil better .. a few dot stains removed.

U sure it won't leave tiny scratch marks on ur mirror? better go back and check ur mirror under the sun see got tiny swirl marks.

Autosol is a very active metal polishers, I have use it to polished my brass stuff and i found out that over the time it eats away the brass material.

And the autosol cream felt like tiny sand.. rough
