sorry if this was said all ready, but i use ice wax, can be put on in sunlight, and on anything, also i use it inside my vx, nice if kids spill something, and doesn't leave it greasy, but still shinny. as for my cladding shinny black and last maybe 4-7 months before you have to put it on again, but so easy, goes on clear, and has that wet look for awhile, but i would try anything to see what is better and easier, don't like that ice only last that long, but with the results i'm pretty happy, especially since i can do the cladding and not sweat taking it off or worry about it turning sorta white.
