I applied it to the rear spoiler (is that what that's called - the black bit at the top of the rear window?) and it has come up an absolute treat.I'll do the other bits later and hopefully get some before and after shots of the plastic.I used to use that, but it tends to "streak" after being rained on or washed. Zaino Z16 is a lot better IMO.

Trim looked ok, next day slight rain shower, water streaks all over the place. Z16 doesn't do that at all. Thats why I now use Z16. Far better product IMO and lasts for ages.

Where do you get Zaino Z-16 from? I've seen it a few places online for £14.90 inc postage - wondering if there's anywhere any cheaper.

I did a bit of blacking up yesterday, using Black WOW. Only the first hit, so it'll get better over time.
