I'd use a sponge, it'll be easier to apply it evenly

I used a thin cloth to wipe it over.

Where can you pick up back to black? Would a place like Action Auto Parts have it?

it look great after you do it the first time, a second coat looks awesome too... but it all goes to shit when it rains.

paintworldinc.com = oem paint in spray can = no more unpainted trim.

I use KIWI leather shoe polish for the plastic lips. it stays for months through rain and everything. it looks like this.

it works great.

also the armor interior cleaner works great for engine bay vacuum lines plastics and so forth.
