I used it on my wifes Expedition, there is about a 2-3 inch wide rubber strip below each window and on most Expeditions I have seen that are at least 3 years old, and some newer, they have faded quite noticably. I used it on ours and it was shiny the first week or two but has been a nice matte for an additional 2 weeks. After the first week it started to show areas where there was more coverage than others so I just used a clean cloth over each strip with no additional chemical and it spread it out nicely. So far no complaints, some people complain that it is nothing more than shoe polish but I like it. I will try to get a picture so you can see what it looks like.
