Hello,

I am in the final stages of kit bashing/scratch building a plastic 
model of 9908 Silver Charger. I've been throwing around the idea of 
useing 'Bare metal foil' to simulate stainless steel but some tests 
on a scrap passenger car have left me less than pleased.
I've heard about Meatalizer but you need to buff the plastic 
smooth before spraying it, and since I have some body filler in areas 
I don't think I can use it. Plus polishing the corrigated sides/roof 
doesn't sound very realistic.
Has anyone used any other products with success? How about the 
paint that you buff between coats, how does this look?
I'm open to all ideas.

Thanks, John.
