Best chrome to brush paint

That’s a sweet looking build… it does look great brushed on. I think I’m convinced to try the BMF first. This way if it’s not to my liking I can always peel it off as well. I appreciate you sharing this. I may end up going this route depending how the BMF goes. -

Good to know! I hate bringing a blade around a finished paint job but looks like I’ll give the BMF a go here. -

I do have the Tamiya swabs in both the large and small size. I’ll have to buy my wife for the old eyeliner brush as well. That’s a good idea. Thanks! -

Looks like I’ll have to give the foil a shot. I’ve used it before with success but this car has got some intricate areas I was a bit intimated on using the foil for. thank you for the advice! -
Thank you again everyone ?

Very clean build. Nice details and the color choice and finish is beautiful.

Hey everyone, I have a project I started (1962 Pontiac Catalina) and the car is painted Testors silver and cleared with Testors wet look. I tried using a Molotow Chrome Pen for the trim pieces, however, it blends right into the silver and you can't tell it was applied. The reason I ask about brush painting, is because the car has a decent amount of chrome trim that needs to be addressed and it would simply be easier for me. I do have bare metal foil however, I'd like to use that as an absolute last resort along with masking off the entire car and spraying the chrome bits. Does anyone have any chrome products they have brushed on with great results? If not, I'll have to bite the bullet, mask it off, and hope that it doesn't bleed onto a paint job I am quite proud of. Thank you in advance!

Here is my take on the Toyota Supra from Tamiya. Great kit, and everything went together as it should. I used wheels from Aoshima and slightly lowered the suspension to make them fit properly. It’s painted with Testors Revving Red and cleared with Testors Clear. Various Tamiya and craft paints were used for the rest of the kit. I scratch built the intake piping and used a cone filter from my parts box. Lastly, the exhaust was made with styrene tubing and bent using some heat. I had a great time building this kit, and hope you enjoy. On to the next!
