It does work but it rubs off easy.. Its ok for outside use as long as your local wash uses very soft cloths to wash your van... A guy sprayed his bonnet with the red coloured one and the wash guys had it peeling off after 4 visits as the cleaning fluid they use is very harsh and thier wash mittens caused circle patterns to appear and it was at bthe edges of these patterns that it started to peel off...

Thats what I was on about the slightest knock or rub and it starts to peel off... There might be a sealer out there that would protect it but then you might as well get a decent wool carpet and carpet everything..

I have used the spray before and as above it has peeled after time.I wouldn't use it again.

I've also used the pot which you can dip items into which i found was good.
