      As soon as I can figure out how to get the fucking Mazda emblems off, those will get done as well. None of the how-to's online are worth a shit, so I'll have to figure it out. It was WAY too hot in my garage yesterday to dick around with it anymore.
      I might try to do the polished lips on my wheels since it's not permanent.

            If you actually plan to remove it someday, be sure to get it on thick.

            If you don't, the spotty areas are an absolute motherfucker to scrape off. It took me four hours to get that garbage off my Brembo wheels. It doesn't come off in sheets when it's old and dry.

              Looks like there is a spray that will help it release.

                  Does it come in a gloss finish? What is the best way to prep crome surface?

                    Just clean it thoroughly and dry it. It's a satin/matte finish.

                      I believe you can clear coat it though. It is paint able from my understanding. I thought of using it and going wild with different colors, that way it is removable.

                        Looks better than stock IMO. Looks like a cheap way to personalize your vehicle.

                          Thanks, I agree. It was cheap, besides all the crouching and sweating. The stuff's only ~$6 a can.

                            i did my emblems with a can of the stuff. 5k miles and the front grill emblem has no blemishes.

                            i've considered doing my motorcycle in flat white with the real kit (spray gun).

                              This is an increasingly common occurrence. People are even starting to do their whole cars.
