    I have been using Molotow Liquid Chrome for a few months now from both the pen and in my airbrush (No thinning required). I use Alclad Klear Kote over the top after a 3 day drying time and don't lose any shine. All other clear topcoats(Acrylic, Enamel and Laquer) I have tried have affected the reflectiveness of the surface

  • @enchantedundergroundorphanedgu

    In model car crafting I discovered placing items in front of a room fan will accelerate dry times of the alcohol based Molotow chrome.

    I tried this pen, the 1mm,. Worked vert well on landing struts. Went to use the same pen months later & could not use the pen, the paint dried the trip closed. Paint came out holding the tip depressed into a blob & wound up throwing it away.

    Picked up the 1mm pen 6 months ago from hobbrama and the D9R Dozer you saw at the 2017 QMHE , I used the pen on the hydraulic rams.
    Was so happy with the results, I grabbed the 30mm refill for $45 also from Hobbyrama to spray through the airbrush.
    To be safe I give it 1 week just to be sure it's safe to touch.
    Andrew and Casey are always a great help when I drop in and keen to always to stop and chat.

      I love these pens now. I always spend a good amount of time in Hobbyrama when in Brisbane. I remember your D9R it was beautiful mate. That was one of my fav kits to build. I am thinking about building the caged version as well.

    You can easily clean up with zippo fluid before it dries up but the ink can take a week to fully cure. Future floor helps seal the chrome on and you lose around 10% of the shine.

    This looks amazing! Definitely looks like a good option to fix up the dash cluster rings on my old car.

  • @TylerFBailey
    @TylerFBailey Před 2 lety

    I love these pens and helped me get 1st place in a model building contest adding that axtra detail! I just hate having to push on the tip to get it going because it messes it up after so many times. Kinda just make a puddle with the refill bottle on painters tape and dip the pens in it to do my detailing now. Been using them for years!

    • @Chadh9322
      @Chadh9322 Před 2 lety

      Rip the tip out and put the ink in an airbrush

    im very late to the party with this video but i've been looking for a shiny chrome paint for the main body of the new Shard of the Void Dragon 40k model. He's made of a liquid, living metal so i thought shiny chrome would do nicely. it's great to hear that i can get this stuff from hobbyrama! next time i get the chance i'm going to pick up a tube for my airbrush. it's expensive but im willing to give it a shot.

  • @ShawnJames310
    @ShawnJames310 Před 2 lety

    If you accidentally drop alcohol while it’s drying you are done. How come no one did trial and error. For what you can top coat so Al cohol doesn’t affect it after cure if accidentally dropped on it when dry.

    I heard when applying these to Chrome rims you should use a clear coat now are you supposed to put the clear coat on before or after the liquid Crown pen

  • @mrabrasive51
    @mrabrasive51 Před 3 lety

    Could the tip be cleaned with alcohol or laquer thinner to keep it from hardening?

  • @genepimentel8854
    @genepimentel8854 Před 2 lety

    I bought one , it don’t flow or come out of the tip,even if pressed several times, really poor to work with, you make it look like it was what I expected. What am I doing wrong ? It’s a piece of junk to use.

  • @markforster6457
    @markforster6457 Před 3 lety

    Can you apply clear-cote over it, once it dries? Thanks for the video!

    Hello! I have those pens and enjoy them immensely. My question is, what is the make of the rusty model car you were working on? I am looking for a 1969 Ford Fairlane 2-door hardtop, and this car looks like it. If it is, can you tell me where you purchased it? Thank you, Judy

    • @scalemodelmania
      @scalemodelmania  Před 6 lety

      Hi Judy. It is a ford but i have no idea where i got it from. Its an old amt kit. this is a link to one www.modelroundup.com/product-p/amt-31935.htm just look around they are still out there. Good luck.

    • @judygarnhum2992

      Hello Scalemodelmania! Thank you so much for your quick reply to my question. I found very close to what I was looking for (the Ford) and have it on order. Have a nice day--Judy in Nova Scotia, Canada
