I tried this out on the hood of the 'vette yesterday. My initial impression is that it looks and smells exactly like the old Blackfire (BFII), except it seems a little runnier, more liquid. The old stuff is almost like a gel, it's pretty thick.
This liquid factor had me put a fair bit too much on the pad, enough that I applied it to one half the hood and could probably have kept going.
So here's where it is different. It still wiped off quite easily. The old stuff would have been a bear. I haven't seen the car outside, so I can't say it truly buffed off completely, but it at least didn't just wipe around like the old stuff can do sometimes.
I actually had the old BF on the hood previously, though I polished the hood out before trying the new BF. In the garage, it looks pretty similar, though maybe a tad more reflective? It actually looks a fair bit like Z5 does. But this is just in the garage, and only on a hood, so who knows. The down-the-hood shot while driving is what really does it for me. If it looks really red then, then I'm happy.
