Really? About three posts up, and you even quoted a post replying to one that mentioned it!

I didn't, I haven't posted in this thread before. But agreed, I could have read it more thoroughly...

Hehe, I speedread yours and the post above, so I retract the bit about quoting.

Hopefully someone has the recipe for it anyway...

Hopefully, it would be tragic if it's genuine and the method to make it is forgotten.

Apparently the "recipe" was known by him and a couple of family members, so all may not be lost.

If it is as brilliant as it seems, it'd be a terrible loss for it not to come into use - commercially or otherwise.

Didn't he forget the recipe after making it, due to the number of mixes he was trying, and then spent years trying to recreate it?

I think it was discussed in one of the linked articles further up the thread.

I was thinking about this stuff today and I've decided the best place for it would be on the wing-mirrors. The spray that sits there and then dries into a horrid film that can barely be seen through is horrendous.
