Hey, Yes I applied it to the trim while on the car. the little bit that i got on the paint whiped off easily. this stuff seems to take about an hour to dry so I guess as long as you do it right away you should not have any problems. I also has a fresh coat of wax on the car and I am sure that helped. I guess you could tape off the areas around the trim but I do not think it is necessary. the applicator is very easy to use and I was able to get very close to the edges of the trim without getting any on the paint although the applicator is a bit small to cover large areas.
good luck Mike >>> "Renard Paulin" <[email protected]> 07/12/01 06:01PM >>> Mike, Did u apply the Forever Black to the trim pieces while attached to the car? If so, what happens if u get a little on the paint? Does it come off easily? Does it come off, but leave a mark/stain/spot/etc.? If I can avoid it, I would really, really NOT have to take every trim piece off the car. These damned '90 GLis have a lot of black trim. Thanks for the info... 1 Fli GLi -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]]On Behalf Of Michael Guidotti Sent: Thursday, July 12, 2001 12:30 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Painting trim I used forever black on my 88 16V about 3 months ago and still looks good. I try to wash the car every week and the stuff does not appear to be fading or wearing off. it comes in a small bottle kinda like a shoe polish sponge applicator. it was enough to do every piece of black trim on the car. 2 coats 3 in some places and there is still some left over. for $10 I am very happy with the results. time will tell if it really is forever.
