Would definitely have to tape up the rubber trim pieces. Seems that reviews point towards long working time. Doesn't seem like a "quick job" type of product.

How long did you work it into the glass and what machine/pads did you use?
Just don't. Seriously. The statement 'quite a mess' fails to accurately describe the 10+ hours you will spend cleaning literally every part of your car, garage, walls, yourself, and anything else you own - all to save a couple hundred bucks and for what will amount to a marginal improvement.

Save yourself an enormous amount of time and aggravation and just replace the windshield. Many regions have no deductible on windshield replacement, some have lower deductibles (mine is $50). It's a comp hit, not collision, so no increase in insurance rates either. Even if you don't file an insurance claim, a replacement windshield on an E9X is only around $600 or so at Safelite.

Trust me, go this route. You will thank me later.
