Ellagee Polish-Ghost Tracks
Described as a stormy grey sparkling with holo and shifty iridescent flakes and shimmer.

The evidence is left in otherworldly hand prints on the back of the car of anyone brave enough to put their lives in the hands of the children lost there in a train accident many years ago. The story is based on a fictional bus/train collision but a real optical illusion where you appeared to be on flat ground but were actually on a slight slope and your car would roll forward off the tracks when left in neutral. The hand prints that appeared in baby powder left on the trunk, were actually prints that were already there that showed through the powder. It was a really creepy illusion all together and fooled a lot of people, it was a big thing to take out of town visitors to see it. Unfortunately they recently regraded the crossing and your car no longer rolls off the tracks, but it lives on in local lore, and now through this polish.
