   is this the same stuff that everyone uses to black out their badges?

   Don't think it does. You'll need to spray that.

   Its an abrasive. So its takes of the fake chrome effect.
   
   Takes a while and some elbow grease.
   
   But its worth it

   just get a rag and a little bit of t-cut on and just keep rubbing, will eventually go black

    T-cutted mine tonight, took a little while and had to put some effort in, but it's well worth it, looks really smart, less chav-esque.
