RE: Foil question
Hi panhndl,
The answer to your question would be no the adhesive does not hard at all. I beleive what makes it a little less prone to scratches and dents is the wet sanding you do to remove the orange peel affect which in turn workhardens the aluminium to a point that it is not quite as soft as it is right off the roll. I have just completed a BVM F-100 with flight metal that was all wet sanded with 320-400 600 and some places with 2500 grit wet/dry sand paper and then polished and that shows more of the scratches than if it was just a weathered look to it.
