Nice work I love the silver finish.

Lovely! That Plastikote (new to me) is really 'metallic' looking. At first glance, I thought you'd covered it with foil.

Thanks for the kind comments. The "chrome silver" Plastikote is a great product but it is extremely slow curing. Other shades don't seem to have this problem.

Still, it's OK to handle after a year or two :grin:
