I put my Souveran Paste and Purple Haze in a glass container together. I put it in the oven at 200 and waited for the mixture to melt into liquid form. Then I stirred it with a wisk, hand poured it into containers, and put them in the refrigerator to set. I cautiously applied it by hand to a panel on my black Mazdaspeed3 this morning. Never in my life have I seen a look quite like it. Soft shine, very deep, warm, almost like an illusion of a black pool of ink. The curves blend together almost like magic.

my wife would have killed me for baking waxes far before I got to apply it.

I couldn't do it on Sunday. We had a very bad storm in Montgomery and it's not looking much better the next few days.

Okay, I finally got a chance to redo the hood. It's been raining for weeks here. It was cloudy so the pix really don't do it justice. I'll post more later.

- Wash with Wolfgang and foam gun.
- Dry
- Quick polish with Wolfgang Finishing Glaze (amazing product)
- Wax
- 3 coats of Z-8

What happen to the Souveran and purple haze concoction? 3 coats of Z8 would make anything look good.

The "wax" step was the concoction. Truthfully there was not much difference after the Z-8. I'm cheap so I dilute it 2:1 with distilled water.

LOL! I mix Z6 with DW, but not Z8.

I would let wax cool naturally and not put it in the fridge. This is because if you put it in a ridge you cool it too fast and may cause separation.

Looks good though, I may have to get some wax mixing or making as I have access to nuba flakes.

Like I said, it was cloudy today and the pix really don't do it justice. You kind of have to see it I guess.
