Taillights and all over my engine hoses, looms, plastic headlight housings, lenses, my tires etc. I buy it in the gallon jug now. It is very long lasting and leaves a very nice luster. They also have many other products, I use their Swirl remover to remove etched in water spots and Cherry wax for a real wet finished look. Scope out their web site.... It is cheaper to buy it from their website than on eBay from JEGS, as all orders over $100 ship free.

Is it good for interior pieces? I'm looking for something that can dress up the interior of the Camaro for when I go to sell it in a couple months. I don't want to have to clean the interior every time someone comes out for a look.

Hey Hi, yes your able to use on the interior trim. I use the product quite extensively inside my car. My friend Kory with a BMW was doubly impressed with this product. Kory is a lowered mini-truck guy, now into VW GTI's and his lowered BMW. He is actually the one talked me into building my Monte up years back. If you would like I can send you a bit in a bottle and you can give the others a review.... PM me if you want some for like $5 shipped. Thanks

Back to Black doesn't last very long. Surf City Garage makes a similar product and used it on the black trim of the Mustang (around the sunroof and side mirrors) and it works very well.
