Forever Black Bumper & Trim 6oz.

Works fine. Goes on like paint. Cleans up like water based paint.I saw negative reviews that said it leaves brush strokes. If you create brush strokes, that's what you will get. I didn't have any trouble getting a smooth finish using the foam brush that came with it.Only time will tell how long it lasts but today, it looks really good.Note: I took the cowl off to clean and paint it.

I love love this product, it made my car trim look good as new and still do. It was easy to apply, make sure you watch the video with the instructions to wipe off the product before it dried up, because it does not come off once dried. I had a few droplets on my drive way but it wasn't too big an issues. Depending on how worn out your teim are you may need more than one coat.I did three coats because it was that bad lol.But overall i would recommend anyone looking for a quick and easy solution for their car.I forgot to take before and after pictures, and it was pretty dark when i was done. But overall it worked exactly as advertised and promised.

I’ve previously tried the Car Guys Plastic restorer and while that looked okay, it has faded so much since then and looks like I never applied anything to it. This bottle of Forever Black is so dark and vibrant the plastic looks band new again and it has been 2 months so far still going strong. One 6 oz bottle was more than enough for ALL the plastics on the Wrangler, handles included which also look amazing.Application was super easy, just taped off the parts of the paint and it worked out great, it’s pretty easy to work with. Definitely will buy again!

I agree that this product will outlast any other product out there when it comes to restoring plastic panels, the tricky thing is to apply it, as it is a dark tint, and if your car's trim is a lighter shade, or even dark grey, this will not restore it, it will tint it darker, and if not applied well, or on textured porous surfaces, it will leave streaks, the smoothest the plastic surface, the more streaks it will leave. A second coat will fix some streaks, but it will add new ones. On the positive side, once it has dried, it will not come off or fade easily! This thing will endure car washes, the sun, and the dirt, outlasting any of the other products out there made for the same purpose.

This is a 2006 Dodge Dakota that has been in the Florida sun for almost 20 years. The 2 before pictures look like the original color was gray but it's a faded black. The after photos are with 2 coats of this product, and it took between 30 and 40 minutes to mask and apply the 2 coats.It's very easy to apply as it is a stain and not any kind of paint. I would recommend applying each coat with the brush strokes in opposite directions. It cleans up easily with soap and water but I would definitely use a drop cloth.I'll probably give it one more coat tomorrow, but I'm perfectly happy if this is the final look.PS the clear headlights are also a DIY project with Meguiar's Two Step Headlight Restoration Kit also from Amazon.

UPDATE 21 Months After Application, 5/28/20: I have never reapplied and it still looks great! I'll bet if I reapplied now it might darken the black a little (the Florida sun and rain are brutal) but there's definitely not any visible fading at all - not patchy or streaky in the least. Just black trim still - amazing!Original Review, August 2018:Was Nervous But SO HAPPY with the Result!This is exactly what I've been wishing existed instead of the silicone crap I've always used!I am a person who reads way too many reviews before making a purchase, and especially did for this since I'm basically permanently painting the trim of my car and there's no room for "oops, I don't like this." But I was looking for something permanent, since the silicone application stuff never lasts more than a week in the Florida sun and rain. This definitely seems to be that! The product is like a very thin paint, kind of like ink. Be careful, it will absolutely paint anything it gets on, including the paint of your car, your hands, driveway, etc. But that's a good thing too - I used it on the bumpers, trim around the windows, running boards, door handles, and even the metal of my windshield wipers where it had worn and was showing silver through. This stuff goes on anything.My Nissan Xterra's trim was originally GREY, not even black, but now that I'm done it's a gorgeous, deep, even black like I bought all new trim pieces (which might have been easier, but much more expensive). I'm so happy with the way it looks! It did take a LOT of time, but I'm a perfectionist. I was worried about the streaking people warned about in the reviews, and when you're putting on the first and even the second coat you definitely can see the brush strokes, but when it cures after a day or two you can't see them anymore. I did put on two coats all over and still have more than half of this 6oz bottle left. I didn't believe it would go so far on my big SUV, even after reading that in reviews, but it's true.Some application tips:1. Don't skip washing the car really well before application. I washed it thoroughly by hand using lots of dish soap, and there were still a couple of small places where the silicone stuff I applied 7 months ago hadn't come all the way out and the Forever Black couldn't penetrate as well. After it had time to cure a day or 2 they're barely noticeable and it still looks tons better than the old faded car I had before.2. Block out the day to do it - it's a tedious project but well worth the time. Also, find a shady spot so it doesn't bake in before you can smooth it out.3. Keep a few wet cloths around to clean up spots where you hit the paint of your car IMMEDIATELY. It WILL paint anything and everything black. It's also a great idea to mask off the areas with tape. I didn't do that, I used cardboard and a wide putty knife, and the wet cloths were still used quite a lot.4. Pick one direction to apply the first coat and after it's dry apply the second coat the other way (left-right vs. up-down). This will help minimize the visible brush strokes.5. Decide what details you are and aren't painting before you start - I got to the honeycomb grate on the front and realized I should have just left that whole area grey cause it was more trouble -and Q-tips- than it was worth. Also, now that I'm "done" I'm seeing that I need to go back and do the roof rack to match, which I didn't leave time for the first round.Obviously I love this product and I love my car even more now that it doesn't *look* like it's 15 years old! Now I just really hope it lasts through the brutal sun and daily hour of thunderstorms of the Florida summer. I'll update my review when/if it does.

I purchased this for the plastic/metal on my Jeep Wrangler. The bumpers were marred up with footprints. I tried everything I could think of to remove or diminish them; noting worked until now.Forever Black Bumper & Trim is worth its weight in gold. My bumpers and trim look like brand new. I just completed the application with two coats so I cannot comment on the longevity or when rain hits it. I will give another review at the end of summer to have some "run" time.Buy this product!!! You WON'T be disappointed.
