    Cladding

    Used two products successfully.

    I used Forever Black which was a very glossy black but you have to put it on in single layers, if you wipe a still wet area it will streak. Let it dry in between coats. Lasted a few years but will come off with road scouring.

    I then used Krylon Plastic Black spray paint with excellent results just not as glossy. It has lasted for a few years also.

    I constantly have people thinking it is a new vehicle.

    Was that just the off the shelf rattle can variety, or did you have to have it professionally sprayed on and baked.

    I noticed my cladding being a little dirty the other day, and just used what was available. I still had a partial bottle of the Turtle Wax Ice stuff, and just made a couple of rounds to put on a fresh coat. It looks good for now anyway.
