Painted black but streaks easily

As the name suggests, this material is excellent for darkening plastics and car interiors. However, it spreads very easily and can be messy when applied. My advice is to tape off the edges before applying this to the finish, use gloves and have a damp towel handy to wipe up any accidents you have. It's best to take your time with the foam applicator, but I found it easier to apply with the round foam applicator pad on the included foam brush. Just take your time applying the product and useโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Protects against UV damage
Cons
  • Not sure

ALL ABOUT PREPARATION Best in Car Care

As with most paint/finish restoration or renewal projects, it rotates all about the PREPARATION. 80%, if not more, of the time it takes for this product to do its job properly is in finish prep. Spend time brushing, washing and cleaning your fins/grooves with an all-purpose cleaner (a simple 90% 1:1 isopropanol solution will do). Once prep is complete, apply Forever Black in a THIN layer and allow to dry. I applied a total of 3 layers with a brush of your choice. This product can and will workโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Permanently paints all textured black plastics, rubbers and vinyls with the same resins used by manufacturers
Cons
  • Requires an outlet

Ideal for refinishing plastic/rubber moldings/overlays.

This product does NOT contain silicone that will drain or wash off when it rains. I have used this product on the body of my last two cars. Works best with a "grainy" finish but not so well with a smooth finish as some brush strokes can appear if you're not careful. However, it works best with grainy/non-smooth surfaces such as wheel arch liners/trims. I used it to line the wheel arches and door handles on my 2003 Explorer (black) and it came out great. I glued ALL areas around my fairing andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Bumper Repair & Trim sticks to foam, rubber and vinyl only.

1 app 2 years ago, still looks great!

UPDATE 21 months after application May 28th 2020: I have never reapplied and it still looks great! I bet if I reapply it now it might darken the black a bit (Florida sun and rain are brutal) but there is definitely no visible fading - no streaks or streaks. Only the black trim is still there - amazing! Original Review, August 2018: Nervous but SO SATISFIED with the result! This is exactly what I wanted instead of the silicone crap I used to use! I'm a person that's good at reading too manyโ€ฆ
