Yep---I put a few drops on a plate and used a balled up piece of saran wrap.
As for the designs---yes but off a template I printed out and taped to the outside of the body. It is not perfect but lining it up was not easy and I also had to do some freehand. at the same time I was worried I was pressing to hard with the blade.
Let me tell ya it was a bitch--it took me an hour or more to cut that.
I used a #10 exacto blade.
Problem was I could not see where the cut went to. Once I started a part I had to finish that fisrt before I could stop. Kinda oissed the wife off when she asked for something. I had to fix some of it with masking tape cut to what it was suppose to be.
As for CB look---I would do it but the problem I have is all the curves and shaprness of the hood.
I do have mirror chrome but I forgot what to back it with. I was thinking of a dark custom colored metalic red.
FWIW---I was going a tribal theme---I dunno but based on all my other work I tend to lean towards the darker colors. When I come up with an idea and map it out--it is great in lighter colors.
It is when I start it---I end up going with the flow---I guess you can I do what speaks to me.
I never know what the main color will end up like---it is a risk.
