Metallic Smoke is the secret weapon for tinting and toning bright metals — a translucent smoky shade that knocks back too-shiny aluminium, adds grime to exhausts and creates believable oil-and-heat staining. Sprayed as a thin glaze over a natural-metal finish it does in one pass what layers of weathering would otherwise take, without hiding the metal underneath.
