    - I need to open the hatch next time
    - I need to apply the techniqe on the second half of the job, to the whole car
    - Be a little more delicate
    -Buy more (i used maybe half ???)

    bang for your buck I don't think this can be beaten.

    I've seen products liek teh auto glym one, and while it does look great once it's one, it only last's 6 months. sure it's a big bottle. but I don't want to be having to re black my car every 2 months, esp; If I had a black top VR6.

    longevity of the shoe polish is really good imo. and for 4 bucks, can't go wrong, even if it's just to try it I reckon.

    Agreed. I've never used it but have seen Mickey go over it and it works wonders. Easy to apply (doesn't require wiping or spreading - just have to use the applicator) and silly cheap. I'm still using Autoglym's Bumper Black and while it beats Armor All, it's still a little clumsy as it comes in a spray can. It "sticks/dries" on really quickly - let it sit for 5 seconds and it'll be too late to spread.

    The bumper black that I use just comes in a bottle. I put a bit on a cloth which is easy enough. It's pretty thick so it doesnt drip onto the paint. But ya I agree kiwi is far better value for money. Autoglym would make a killing.

    I actually did mine on an hot day. say,. 25 degrees +. I had no issues with spillage, if anything, the "plish" absorbed better..
