So a few months ago as I was browsing ColumbiaCoatings I noticed one of the customers examples. which was a gold vein base with a Candy Red on top.

So I ordered some Gold Vein and felt like experimenting on my Honda ecu. I must say Im VERY HAPPY.

Heres the example.

Very cool. I've heard of using the silver vein with a candy top coat, but not gold vein...looks great!

Would adding another layer of Candy on top make it brighter or darker?

Darker. More coats means the light has to penetrate said extra coats, making it darker.
