Somebody recently made a comment about '"standing on the shoulders of giants " which is most defenatly the method I'm using to build my SLC.
That being said we all make mistakes or look back on our builds and think "If I did it again I'd do this or that differently "
Anyway I thought it might make a good thread.
For me and it's only a personal thing, I wouldn't have covered the engine bay in Reflet A Gold.
It looked great when first applied but the instant you try and screw anything down against it the washer bites in and drags the foil around into a swirl pattern.
Also I had a problem with the backing glue that had ridges that caused ripples when laid down and were impossible to get out.
Long story short, I hated it and it took a week to get it all off and cleaned.
