I have to say it is a MAJOR improvement, although any chibs or gouges that were there before will remain. I used a Black & Decker heatgun holding it about 1-2 inches away from the surface keeping it moving in a circular motion for the best results. DO NOT let the gun or anything for that matter touch the bumper when it hot as you will smear the plastic and always keep the gun moving. Only time will tell if this lasts and you never know I may have accelerated its demise. Anyhow, it beats slabbering oil based products on it which only last a couple of weeks. It does look 10 years younger with its "chemical peel".
now if i can only find the heat gun
great improvment
