eerrr.......... have you seen a newspaper lately? this may not be the best time to have the "take this job and shove it" attitude.

model railroad paint (Floquil brand) prided itself on making "scale paint" by grinding their pigments many times finer than average model enamels. maybe it's dated technology now, but the theory certainly was valid.

i think that's why silver paint looks more like "scale chrome" than chrome plated plastic.
