I have never seen a gold version yet, but I'm sure they will eventually come out with one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is like Alclad and a clear coat will dull the shine. Just make sure to Give it a few days to make sure it is dry before handling your piece.

My question is, can you use the pen or air brush the chrome over Future floor wax????? Well, Molotow inks are alcohol-based. I haven't tried, but it will probably be safe. But anytime I try new technique I try it on some unimportant piece of plastic (like a plastic spoon). Just coat the spoon with whatever finish you would have on your model (including the Future), then apply the Molotow over it. Also, you used a common misnaming: Future (or whatever its current name is) is *NOT* a floor wax. Wax just cleans and shines the surface it is applied to - it has not appreciable thickness. Future is a floor finish: It is actually an acrylic clear coat which goes on much thicker than a wax (it is more like a clear lacquer).

Michael jones Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 The answer for future over molotow is yes it can cover molotow, but does take away the reflectivity quite a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Um, I was hoping for something more shiny looking (like polished brass). Alclad has polished brass, but a Molotow pen version would be welcome too.
