Never used it, but most GlistenPC is made by a reputable company (POR15). http://www.por15.com/product.asp?productid=246
Eastwood also makes some good restoration products.

Yea, but his have been refinished and probably just painted. The stock ones are probably powder coated or sprayed thick with something other than spray paint.
