Hey there,

Thanks for the kind words, that is why I do what I do!
Paper Bag huh??? LOL!
Well it should be pretty easy if the TriFlectives are on there. My favorite grey cover level 7 no red is 40 ml 20vol 20mls 7NN 10mls 7BG 10mls 7MB you can adjust the MB to 15 and for sure squash the red, The BG will help control the vinyl wool and cotton on her length. I like the SB low against it, even try adding a few mls of MB to the SB and you will be set. For her next re touch, introduce the new base and you will have the most beautiful BPB ever! LOL!

Let me know how it works,
AMB
