I will report that BW, still has a great look after 3 months, feels slick and even water beads up on it.
I almost posted this earlier today but I couldn't remember if you liked the stuff or not. Haha..

Well....as an early adopter of BW, I have used it since it was available beyond sample size.

It is a good product....one of my stand by's. A little goes a long way.

BW is one of those products that can make anyone look like an expert. Just ask CuFootn.

I used Krylon Fusion paint on my wiper cowl with great results. Another member used it on his bed rails and it looked great too.

So far for me my bumpers and other plastic trim are in decent condition, and the bed rails don't bother me that much. I'd like to get some black diamond plate caps or covers, but I can't seem to find any.

I painted my cowl with the Black Satin Fusion and I use Bondo Restore Black on the bed rails(about every 3 months).

I just found a web site that has black or chrome bed rail cover that or diamond plate. Just go to the website customtruckboxes.com and look uder the subtitle Bed Protection. This might help you out .

X2. The little foam paint brush makes applying it very easy as well.

Gotta say, that Ticman is somewhat the pioneer of Showroom Restorer. His results kind of speak volumes.
