Detail washes??

[snacktruck67]

I was wondering which is best to use when blacking out grills and such.  Should I use a ready to use black wash or make one?  Also should it be acrylic or enamel.  I find that using a ready to use wash in acrylic is a bit wishy washy.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

if its on a chrome grille, I just use tamiya light smoke and brush it on. It tends to sit in the low spots and leave the raised parts chrome
