I used the paste this time instead of the liquid, and it goes on different, using less but not staying soft as long, thus perhaps not cleaning as well. I used the 'black again;' I think it's called, thick liquid, with a toothbrush to get the stray Nufinish off of the black plastic, and it worked well.
I'll keep using it until I hear about something else that lasts as long on vehicles that sit outside.
You basicly duplicated Consumer Reports findings from '06. The liquid cleaned better but the paste lasted longer versus the other pastes at least. I don't know if they directly compared liquids to pastes.
