Carb detailing paints and coatings

Post by Adrian Worman »

I wanna get a gold irridite finish on some carb linkage parts and also try and replicate that dull greenish gold colour on the carb bodies. I know I've seen some detailing sprays somewhere but I just wondered who on here had tried em and what kind of results did you get? :help:

and I think this'll do the gold finish?

Not cheap tho and I've never used them myself!
