Something to note, make sure the surface is clean (i have to redo part of mine thanks to some cleaning cloth streaks that stayed there afterwards). Also as Anthony suggested it is melting the plastic so don't touch it until cooled - it will deform/mark. Be aware of the fumes too - don't look down from above LOL.

Seemed to make a noticeable difference on my factory mud flaps and a little on the door handles.
