Nice work Moni, love em!


Paint scratching off and peeling is common on white metal. Need acid etch spray first, this will make the primer adhere better and then the top coat will stay on too.

All things considered they came out pretty good.


I find that Alclad primer is very good on white metal. In fact it is a very good all-rounder, as when it has cured it is a hard as nails..
