I don't understand your question. I didn't use Banana Gloss on the plastic side skirts. I used PreWow and Black Wow.

I know these acronyms can get confusing.

BW is Black Wow
BG is Banana Gloss or Banana Gas the original name. It was never called Banana Wax for obvious reasons.

Btw, the link to BW from the first post goes to Black Wow.

Hey OG about to do the full detail on mu Chili Red.

Noticed that you did not tape off the bonnet stripes. Are they painted stripes?

ahhh got it.

In lieu of the 1/4" 'Secret' tape I took a utility blade, held it firm and horizontal, and ran it around a 1" roll of painters blue tape. Should suit my purposes to cover up the small crevices around the hood scoop, gas cap, etc. (Great idea by the way!)

As always, thanks OG!
