I have also used the SEM on my front windshield trim on the a-pillars and top. I understand others have used it to re-spray their side vents behind the door area and the rubstrips. You can also use it on pretty much all the trim pieces areounf the door's etc.
One word of caution... I found out the hard way that it is not fuel safe as I had repainted my entire engine bay as Dave did. A loose fuel line bajo bolt sprayed gas into the bay and quicly dispolved the pain so I had to re-spray portions.

Glad to hear this works so well when done correctly. Just got the paint now I have to wait for the weather to warm up.

Kinda defeats the purpose don't ya think.I suppose if it's semi-gloss clear.

It's purpose is whatever I'd like it to be. Sure it would be glossy, but I'm okay with that!

It will probably "lift" the black.

Good if you like wrinkle-finish.
If using non-same-type or brand paints one over, the other always test it on something other than what you are painting first.
