Just saw this online:-

They finished effect looks amazing. Anyone heard of this or tried it. It would look amazing on those post-war polished jets.. 

Wonder if it can be airbrushed?

Anyone tried the various Molotow products for this kind of finish (Liquid Chrome markers and Burner Chrome aerosol)? I just ordered a 400ml spray can of Molotow Burner Chrome; if the results are amazing, I'll be sure to post something.

 

BTW, a more descriptive subject line might attract more discussion - just sayin'...

Hello,

an option is this:

These are alcohol based colors at an affordable price. Interestingly they use the same test specimens on their pictures as the above vendors ... are there connections between them?  Anyway, I saw a (spray) demonstration of these colors at the IPMS Switzerland show last May. The results looked very good, especially chrome. Unfortunately I have no infos about durability, resistance against scratching and masking tape.

Hello John,

I have used the molotov pens and they are a marvel to use and ideal for doing headlights and leading edges.

You can do larger surfaces as well if you use a different tip wich are seperately available.

It can be painted over with a clear varnish wich need to be waterbased....

If you don't like what you have done it can be cleaned with a alcohol based cleaner..

 

Cheers, Jan

Were these the same guys demonstrating by spraying plastic spoons " live" at Telford last year? From Italy?

 

Yes, same company. I chatted with him for a while. Their metallics/chromes impressed me greatly, I have to say.
