3 layer tiger wrap

Has anyone tried doing a 3 layer tiger wrap? (base layer, middle layer, top layer) I am thinking of trying it but thought I would ask to see if I was just wasting my time. I have had good success with the standard 2 layers and thought a 3rd layer might add something or it could be just too much and wreck the whole effect.

I looked without success for "tiger wrap" in this site's glossary. What is a tiger wrap, and what is its function?

Look in the glossary again under "Throop 3D Tiger Wrap."

I can tell you that with my test wrap it does not look like it works.

Offhand, I wouldn't think it would work. I'd think the third layer would only detract from the tiger. Some colors, (lighter colors, metallics, neons) might work in unique ways.
