Revell Metallic Finisher Paint

[martsky]

On a whim, I just bought two cans of this paint. I assume it will be a clear coat with sparkles in it. Has anyone used it? What is its best usage?

Purchased some as well and am wondering the same thing.

Where did you purchase it from? I looked but did not find it. Years ago, Testors had the same thing which worked out perfectly.

If you mean Testors metalizers, they were an entirely different idea.

The metalizers simulated several kinds of bare metal surfaces, in both 'buffing' and non-buffing flavors.

Correctly used, the 'buffing' Aluminum Plate, for example, would look just like lightly polished naked aluminum sheet, if that's the effect you wanted.

If the metalizers were NOT what you were referring to, never mind.
