Message	before I did my intake I sprayed wrinkle red on different things to perfect it. The key is 3 even THIN coats of paint in different directions (horizontal,vertical, diagnal) and wait 10 mins in between each coat! Thick like the can says makes it bubble and do all kinds of weird stuff. Some people said applying heat helps it wrinkle more.. I just found that made it wrinkle faster. Waiting and not heating it up at all makes it wrinkle evenly and look more natural. No baking. Just letting it sit for 48hrs at least (one week in my case) Finally installing and driving underhood temps will cure it eventually.... heres to hoping my paint lasts! :) Good luck! src="http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f192/drk93tt/Picture6.p ng">
