An undercoat of Ford Engine Blue was applied and allowed to harden for a few days, then a wet sanding with 2500 sandpaper followed. I like to use a blue undercoat for Alclad II. On a nice day
what we see when we look at aluminum is what it reflects, which would be mostly blue so it seems logical to use blue. Normally I use a very dark blue but I have a lot of the Ford Blue and need
to do something with it. Alclad Aluminum 101 was the overcoat, applied as dry and as thin as possible.
