|  Aluminum look
I just bought a Wraith kit and I want to paint the roof to look like aluminum but couldn't find any info on it. So how do I do it?

I usually lay down the silver first. Then while it's still wet, drag a paint brush over it, then back it with black.  |

Model Master makes an aluminum paint that can be buffed to look like sheet aluminum.
