Re:Bare Metal Foil

"Two other approaches I mentioned to Rich are the "Bare Metal Foil" used by
builders of plastic model cars and model airplanes, and the silver leaf used
for lettering by sign-painters. I haven't tried either (more interested in
dechroming than rechroming) but either might be worth looking into."
I used the Bare Metal Foil on metal that I was using to make the chrome
plastic trim that surrounds the veneer on the shift and emergency brake
consoles. It seemslike it would be good for models, but I wouldn't try to
use it on a piece exposed to the elements. I think it would tear easily.
