Don Wheeler Posted January 21, 2018 Posted January 21, 2018 What's the best method to touch up the spots where sprue connected to chromed parts? Do you use a dab of silver paint or some other color? Thanks, Don
Snake45 Posted January 21, 2018 Posted January 21, 2018 I've been using a Silver Sharpie, but those Molotows have gotten such rave reviews here that I had to break down and buy one (they're expensive and not easy to find), though I haven't used it yet.
bobthehobbyguy Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 Another option is to remove nub from cutting off tree. Put a dab of alclad black and let dry and the a dab of alclad chrome.
Don Wheeler Posted January 22, 2018 Author Posted January 22, 2018 Thanks for the tips, guys. I never heard of Molotow. Don
Miatatom Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 They carry them at Hobby Lobby. Get the 40% off coupon before you go get it.
Mahogany Rush Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 Add me to the newly converted user of the Molotow Chrome Pens (1mm & 2mm). They are great!

I got my first one at Hobby Lobby last week. With the coupon it was around $8. It's excellent for that little dab of chrome. I've also used it for dashboard knobs and other areas where one dab of chrome is needed. You cannot paint with it, as it dries quickly and going over an area again distorts what you've already applied. That 40% off coupon is a great way to pick up women at Hobby Lobby! I'm amazed at how many people don't know about it and are walking around with a basket full of expensive items. On that last trip there was a long line at the cash register. The lady behind me had a large item so I casually mentioned the coupon holding up my phone. She was very thankful, as was the lady behind her who was also listening. I guess Hobby Lobby deserves that for having long lines! And if I was single, I could do very well there!
espo Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 That's an interesting product. 9 hours ago, Scaleliveries said: Maybe this cab help https://scaleliveries.com/2018/02/02/borderless-waterslide-chrome-stripes-decal-for-all-scale/ How does the thickness compare to Bare-Metal Foil ??
