Perhaps, but my experience with this stuff on the exhaust tells me that it'll show through. My worries are that scratching it up will leave tons of partially adhered flakes between all the ridges. Even if they don't show under the paint, they are likely to go ahead and flake off with the paint from vibration or changes in humidity, then that will surely show.

Other than one fleck in the collector, almost all of the places it flaked off were places the would contact a flat surface when set face down, which I will attribute to the family member who secured it for me during the rainstorm while I was away. I guess I'll try layering it all on thick and making sure that NOTHING touches it before it's sealed in the headlight assembly. I'll get all my fitting and drilling done first this time.
