TreehuggerHow do you handle chrome parts that are snipped off from the sprue, as there would be no chrome paint on the exposed area. Having said that, I don't currently do car kits, so I guess there is always the chance that kit manufacturers managed to hide the location of the stubs.

TreehuggerI think black was a nice choice, as it contrasts nicely with the chrome metal paint. 🙂

Andy W.Hi. Treehugger, and thanks for Words.
By the time i've build this truck, i've used a Chrome Marker and sometimes strips of Bare Metal Foil Ultra Bright Chrome for touchups. The stubs are all but not hidden. There is always a part where the Chrome is damaged. On my next Truck i will use the new Molotow Chrome Pens. All the tests with them i've made so far gave me absolutley great results.

Album info
This Truck/Trailer-Combo was build several Years ago. At this time i was running my own Signmaking-Shop (B.A.W. Design), wich i did until 2009.
Because of that, i've decided to build a Showtruck to advertise my Business on Model-Shows.
The Trailer comes from the Sinalco Showtruck. All of the Decals were selfmade with a Thermotransfer Printer.
