Thanks everyone, and sorry for the delay in getting back to you.
Thanks, Strangeways! Welcome to the forum! I like your avatar. Herge/Tin Tin are favoite of mine as well. Cheers.
Thanks, Bob! Keep up the great work!
Thanks, Bagge!
Thanks, Luiz! I hope that I won't disappoint.
Thanks to the emoji bangers!
My first try at Alclad.
I have had this bottle sitting around for a couple of years now, and I thought that I would give it a try. I thought it was "chrome" but it turned out it was "aluminum". I decided it didn't matter and charged ahead. (It's all made up and in my head anyway). From what I have read, you should undercoat with gloss black lacquer. I just used some rattle can gloss black lac. from Home Depo. I think it serve it's purpose in good form. I tested it on my donor vehicle (highly recommended) just to be safe. (Don't throw out those old models!)
So it's gun and "Go-pros". The cameras had their weak styrene stems removed and replaced with some robust music wire to thwart my inevitable ham-handed damage. Fingers crossed.
Thanks for looking and for your patience.
Cheers,
Bill
