    Sorry for not replying sooner...

    The brush strokes don't show up at all ... of course flake is very forgiving for imperfections.

    I used about a 50/50 mixture of clear and flake. I did it this way so I could put some thick layers of flake/clear instead of a lot of thin layers for complete coverage.

    Not sure how much flake I used but I still have about 1/4 of flake in the jar left.

    I should stress that the bike is garaged so I can't say for sure how it all holds up to the sun and elements... although I bring it out often so it has been tested and still looks great.

    I don't offer my system as a best alternative... just another way to skin a cat.

    He's done it in a different thread. That's what reminded me to go back to this thread.
