It's fine to stick with what you know... sometimes you just have to put down the mallets. Take it from someone who knows... I did play the 'drum set' at one time... it got old to most. Again, take it from someone who's played in a rock band or six.

After retrying that FK1 Pink Wax, I may have to add a new logo to my 'drum set'...
Ditto, just playing a little zone defense on the homer calls...

FK1 Pink Wax... impressive stuff, I tell ya.

Dare I say, it may rival #16...

I definitely haven't bought into the entire 'anti-static' thing that FK1 touts but, they do have a few great products in the mix.

I've tinkered with it for a while, honestly... I had a sample size of it and then jumped and bought a full container around the middle of last year.

While I won't really say that the concealing properties are there -- as I've really not tried to use them -- I will say that it looks very wet and definitely darkens the paint.

In a four-square test on the wife's hood, it's winning (over #16, 3m Perfect It, and Natty Red)... although, it's a close race... and, of course, it's in the eyes of the beholder. (BTW, I really like 3M's PerfectIt as well -- not as good as the Pink and #16 but, it's really good stuff (and dang cheap as I got it on closeout at Napa a year or two ago!)).

My dumbarse got the wild hair a few weekends ago to give this trial a go on a whim... naturally, I didn't document a dang thing (hindsight is always 20/20)

You would be so proud I use HD on the wheel wells and the frame.

All seriousness aside I'm very happy with the results. Next victim is a black CTS-V.....pics to follow.
