Let it shine

Son-in-law Steven spent the afternoon with his Porter-Cable polisher and array of guy stuff, including Black on Black for window frames and belly band.
I watched ( see right ).

You do know how lucky you are, right? I'd say you won the son-in-law sweepstakes.

That is one nice shine and when folks ask about it you can modestly say, "Oh, it wasn't much effort at all"

I don't understand how the Black on Black is used. After waxing the f.g. does spray some B on B on a cloth and wipe it only on window frames etc.?

Yup. He sprayed it on a cloth and wiped the rubber / plastic. Easy peasy.

Graphics on mine are actually to match 'Black Forest Green' ( RAV colour ). Very close to Hunter Green. How they appear depends on the light falling on them. Pix are under overcast and sunlight.

That is a great color and someone has that or the same on their 21'. We have a 3M stripe in a color close to that to be put on later.
