neiljonarcus:
thats just a old lever i only painted one side a quick flash over
oberonspacefruit:
Forgiven then.
I have painted stuff in metallics before to try to recreate the original alloy finish, but it still looks painted to me. The nearest to original finish i have seen, is as mentioned abouve, glass paint. Its tranlucent, and if you use a semi gloss laquer over the top, its quite similar to the original finish. depends on the look your trying to achieve i suppose.
