Well I got a bottle of Mother's back to black. 1 GENEROUS coat down, and it looks good. Going to keep re-applying for a few days and see how it does. What I can't figure out is why this stuff comes out of the bottle white, but makes things blacker. I didn't bother to tape the paint first (Ebony VX), so I'm not sure if that's going to be an issue or not. I probably should have, but I was in a hurry.
