On a MK2 golf so very old plastic and have tried all the detailing products out there and some have worked really nicely apart fom the rear bumper just doesn't want to take to anything!
Anything else worth trying.....more like a spray paint or plasti dip......?

Well Maurizio, no doubt there will be others after me telling you about their chosen treatments. I can only recommend autoglym bumper care which has revived countless old cars of mine in the distant past. Even after decades adding a flammable liquid to the green dried up gel after I purchased this stuff to revive it because I'm a tight git/don't want to waste anything. That is of course black plastic.
I'm an old git & happy with it,most of the time

Try a heat gun/ hairdryer gently warm it up will bring oils back to surface may only last temporary though.
House hold items such as peanut butter or peanut oil work aswell.
If it’s really faded and has white streaking marks on it. It may be too far gone. You can scotch it up apply plastic adhesion promter and then black texture coat followed by clear texture if you desire a satin look over Matt
