So here's the skinny, tonight I decided that I wanted to repaint one of my film statues, the 18" T2 Endoskeleton, to resemble one that I saw on another site that someone had painted. He painted his to look like steel rather than plastic, so I asked him how he did it but got no reply.
So, I went to my local True Value Hardware and found some "metallic" spray paint and primer, the paint's cap is a highly reflective chrome, like the fender of a car to give you an idea, but when I got it home and tested it on a piece of scrap, it doesn't look at all like the cap, it looks like regular ol' silver paint.
I was pissed because the cap gives the wrong impression of the paint color, but i'm glad I found out before I applied it to the figure. Anyway, I need spray paint that is chrome, not silver, does anyone know where I can get some and what it's called?
Thanks.
