3 1/2 yr old car with original hood wrap. I've used VRT as well. Still looks brand new.

adams is a sponsor here. amazon and many others sell their products. I don't dilute. I use their foam applicator then over a few days, I wipe the excess off. Once, maybe twice per season I'll apply it

Too shiny for my taste, I use Chemical Guys matte detailing spray. It leaves a true matte black look. The sole purpose of the matte black hood is to avoid sun glare, when you add shine you defeat it's purpose. It's your ride, do what you want.

Use an all purpose degreaser and rinse off with water, done. Seal it with dr beasly's matte sealant

After a rain or wash that shine goes away and leaves a deep rich matte black color. Like the wrap is brand new.

This. But instead of water, I use the Adams detail spray

I use the matticulous Matte shampoo and protectant/sealant on my Matte finish spoiler. Works great, leaves little to no shine and keeps that authentic look. It has been really hot out here in CO and it has not faded one bit. Great product.

Same product I use. Plus I had the hood, front spoiler and rear spoiler wrapped in Xpel Stealth film to not only keep it from getting chipped but keep the matte finish. Looks great and unless you are parked next to another 1LE you cannot really tell a difference.
