I've seen chrome and aluminium paint advertised, does anyone have any experience with this?
Another suggestion from a friend who builds model cars: Use bare metal foil. I've seen his models and you can't get shinier than that. You can actually see reflections in it. I watched him do some detailing one time and it looks fairly easy. You put the foil over a surface and rub it to completely bond it with the surface then trim off the excess. The result is amazing!
You don't have to worry about getting it on other parts. It only sticks to the part you rub.
