double-dipped
Coated a second time
Double-dipped describes something dipped twice—a pretzel double-dipped in chocolate, or a candle built up through repeated immersions.
The phrase also refers to collecting two incomes from related sources, often improperly: He double-dipped by drawing a pension while still on the payroll.
In finance, double-dipped describes a recession that briefly improves before declining again.
