I wonder if that's the difference between success and failure. I tried this a few years ago using dry foil... It deposited lots of foil, that was obvious, but I don't think it filled the pits well, or improved the look much I was very disappointed witb the results and decided after multiple attempts, that either I was expecting too much, or it was like those vinyl repair kits sold on TV- not actually possible in the real world...
Later tonight, I'll give it a try.
