So the other day while cleaning my F150, I had just got done wiping down the dash with Megs Natural Shine Protectant in the red bottle (I love this stuff).
Anyways, so there I am going about my cleaning routine and the phone rang. I toss the terry towel I was using over the side mirror (black plastic on the back for the f150). Pick up the phone and talk to the girlfriend for a few minutes. Hang up and go to retrieve my terry towel to continue with the passenger side.
As I'm walking up to the mirror, I trip over the hose and regain some balance just as my hand hits the towel. I guess I kinda pushed the towel against the back of the mirror as I regained balance. When I remove the rag, I notice that the black plastic of the mirror had been transformed.
It's now what appears to be beautiful silky looking black plastic and has never ever looked this good. I mean it looks liquid. I stand there for a few minutes admiring it. This is the greatest thing ever I think to myself.
Then, it happened. Without another thought I go nuts rubbing natural shine protectant on every piece of black trim on the outside of my truck. Bed rails, mirrors, top of back bumper, door handle buckets, weatherstripping around all the windows, bed cover, step bar tread, I mean everywhere. WOW that looks good. Real good.
About two days later I have to go to work early around 5 am. The truck is covered with dew. When I left work (it had rained earlier in the day) I'm walking up to the back of the truck. "WHAT IS THAT?" I scream to myself as I see streaks down my dark blue tailgate. Then it hits me. Then I see the same thing down my doors, and down my bumper. I'm a moron. Wanna know what happened when that stuff got wet? Yep, big mess!
Turns out, it's an interior product for a reason!
Anyone else get carried away and make a similiar mistake or am I the only one?
