Yes! That is the stuff I have used for the last 10 years. Brings back the black and it actually lasts, good stuff. Got mine at the dealership.

S100 works great, Pig Spit, HD engine bright also is good but they are all way over priced. I found a product called = Trim Shine, its made for the black trim on autos,makes black bumpers , mirrors, etc. shine like new and is amazing on the wrinkle black on my motor. The can is about 4 times the size of all the others mentioned and it lasts, I use it only twice a season, 1 can lasts about 2 years, no wiping or rinsing required after applying. Can be found at most auto parts stores or even Target or WalMart, best part is it's about 4 bucks a can. Look for it, you wont be dissapointed.

http://www.amazon.com/Permatex-80070.../dp/B004A34LC6

I am assuming if it sprays thicker than Pig Spit, I would just spray into a MF then apply?

Living in Belgium we don't have necessarily the same manufacturers on our market but that one seem good to go.
Actually I am using the Wynn's brand wich is quite the same product.

You may also just wipe off the excess!
