Of course I used up all my de-icer spray the last time we had frost.

The pictures really don’t do it justice. It changes color with the lighting from really dark purpleish/blue and a royal blue almost. And in the sunlight & good light, the metallic really comes out.

Waiting for it to completely dry/cure & then I’m going to sand the “Honda Motor Co.” and “DOHC VTEC” so they are bare metal…or should I not?

lol no, no pipe tape. It’s just the polished finish of the AN fitting because the female AN fitting doesn’t cover it all & I taped off the AN fitting.
