I've got the smoke ready for them but I'm wondering on the order, Smoke - frames - handles Or Frames - smoke - handles Then again, with a base of the air brushed smoke, the black frame paint should stick to it when brushed much better shouldn't it?

I think applying the smoke first will outline and highlight the frames, which should make them easier to see while painting the frames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your input Neil. I shall approach it as you suggest. They have all also been dunked in Pledge and are drying as I type for that nice shiny finish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
