Easiest place to get it -- online.

Quickest place to get it -- local automotive paint shops. Look in the yellow pages under Paint - Automotive and call around.

Ok Benny boy...I can understand Bumper Black for plastic, but why would you use it on painted metal (ala door jambs).

Course I normally just GEPC/SEP it then wax....but I know you prefer the synthetic route.

PS 303 protectant will also work on plastic trim....tires......dashes......

Not door jambs, but those side trim pieces that are black. The B-Pillar trim. And the shadowline trim if you have it.

I dunno the reasoning behind it, but one of the M6 guys at the last BMWCCA Clean Car Contest said he swears by it so I picked some up, and voila. Works like a charm.
