Humbrol Metalcote Spray Can

[Jimmy S]

Just had a try with this. Goes on nice and smooth none of the lumps associated with the small tin version. I sprayed it on a 75mm resin scabbard, let it harden for 24 hours then buffed up with a cotton bud. I haven't put any sealer on it so it will be interesting to see if it reacts like the tin version. Nice metallic finish with a polished steel effect.

Thanks for this Jimmy. Will be interested to know if it is affected by handling if not sealed tho.

I would give it a quick *** of GWS spray varnish sealed forever and no chance of lifting off as can happen with a brush
and lets you do some shading with oils
