So i held my breath and went for it...
I even died it TWICE just to get a good solid black... the pics are a lil light cuz of the flash, but it IS BLACK!
after i completed the task, it seemed like the finish was kinda scratchy, so i took my microfiber screen cloth and rubbed it in and now it looks FLAWLESS!
2 coats, half hour worth of work... i'll get back if the fading begins..
