With the almost chrome-like finish this could also become a 1:1 car bonnet decoration from an American Fifties car!  :thumbsup:

I had that comment at my club meeting last night! I'm going to try and dull it down and make it look used.

Boy this silver paint stays tacky for a long time! Stays soft to the touch. I'll just let it sit for a week and see.

Maybe mid-July, if someone asks nicely in a few weeks. ;)

I test sprayed the white I'm going to use over the silver paint. A little fishy on the test piece but if I spray light coats I think it will work.

I've been gone the last two days and the silver paint seems much better. I'll give it a few more days and check again.

I took a quick look just now and availability of AMMO brand appears to be no problem. Looks to be worth a try. I have a 1/64th B-58 that will need NMF. I'll need that blueish tint for around the engine exhaust.

Well that's cool man  ;D
Ammo do all that sort of paint..exhaust colour just for that sort of thing and a heap of aircraft colours..fact over 300 colours to play with bud and the oils Ammo does are awesome and super easy to use and the results are brilliant .
The M88/M1 ARV im nearly done with is painted entirely Ammo..washes..oils..mud effects are entirely Ammo.
