Venturing outside of the box - - -

I know - “they” say that it won’t work, but I do a lot of things that they say won’t work! For the past week or so I’ve been playing with combining Menzerna with carnauba on my Chili Red hood.

One or two thin layers of Menzerna FMJ alternating with one or two layers of Souverän or Pink Carnauba. The wait between layers has varied between several hours to back to back application. Excellent reflectivity and depth! The minor marring that I missed when I did my initial paint prep are disappearing. Try it - you may like it! Today I’m going to start on half of my Jet Black hood.

Shhhh! Don’t tell anybody about this procedure - - it’s my secret!
