Budget Dullcoat/Flat Option
Posted: Thu Sep 01, 2016 9:10 pmIn the search for lower cost Pledge Floor Shine (Future) some of us have seen this at the local Dollar Tree/Dollar General.
It might have other names at your local. One thing I can tell you, there is NO SHINE to this. It is actually very dull.
Shotgun Dave pointed it out to me that it is a great dullcoat/flat option when you want to do some weathering, etc.
So I tried it. I had layed down some Future on the latest Camaro and of course some of it laid into the front "bolt on" nose section.
Well I didn't want gloss here as most of them come out of the box in a satin appearance.
So using a brush I went over the nose and allowed it to dry. PERFECT. It returned it to the finish I wanted.
To better illustrate, here is a very glossy sign that shows you the effect it brings when dry.
Anyway, it works well and brush clean up is easy with water.
It cost a $1.00 at my Dollar Tree and almost the exact same brand at my Dollar General is $1.75
Just an option.
