Best way to restore black color on trim pieces?
Hey, this is my current project car and right now I'm focusing on mostly the body work; removing dents/cracks, new tint, cleaning it up, etc...
The next step I wanted to do was restore the black in the side trim pieces of my car but I have only a small idea of what paint to use.
I was planning on using this paint but I wanted to see if I could get some opinions first:
http://www.duplicolor.com/products/vinyl.html
If anyone has other paint suggestions lemme know and post a link please.
Edit: It's not necessary to sand down trim pieces is it?
Also, I was gonna restore the trim pieces by the windows and anywhere else on the car as well.

SEM is nice. But if you just want to use the stuff from the auto parts store, go with the Duplicolor trim paint or bumper coating. GREAT STUFF! You will have to sand down all of your trim pieces with 400 grit sandpaper, and use Duplicolor adhesion promoter. I did mine on my EJ8 about three years ago and it still looks new!
