Honeycomb cleaning

I can't find a topic on this, but what are you guys using to clean the front honeycomb grill and radar? Mine is looking weathered

There should be a Chemical guys product that revives plastic trims. Mine too seems to show the most "abuse" compared to the rest of the car. I figured it was just part of the car ownership game

I saw that and thought maybe with ours being gloss trim that it wouldn't work.

Gyeon Bathe or Gyeon Bathe+ or if it's really dirty, I pre-soak with Gyeon Foam
