I'm not a huge fan of reds, but Jungle Red definitely deserves some love. This beauty is a bright, neutral red in direct light, but is actually quite deep in the shade. I could still see VNL at 3 coats, but that didn't bother me. A fourth coat is a definite must for full opacity...or thicker coats maybe? The application was smooth and easy. Dry time was decent and its finish is like vinyl. Beautiful!
