Good looking paint and foil job Matthew! 

Always interesting to see other builder's workbenches too. I do have a question, what do you use the pop rivet for? Always great to get another tip.

Cheers Misha

Looking really nice Matt!

Have you ever used Alclad paints?

The gold anodized trim can be replicated very nicely with a mixture of Alclad "Pale Gold" & "Polished Aluminum".

Might be a little late for that at this point though.

Probably would have been better to try that before the foil was applied.

Personally, I think it looks just fine as is!

Keep up the good work.

It'll be a beauty when it's done!

I'm still a noob at this whole thing! I built a few with my dad as a kid...still no expert! This was my first 2tone paint job and I have a few overspray marks where the tape wasn't tight enough  but I'm happy with the foil job and how well the doors fit!
