Guys, I need your advise.
I'm working on an old slot. I want to paint the highlight areas on the front castings a gold color and then paint the whole casting red and remove the red paint from the gold highlight areas. The highlight areas are too big and intricate to mask off.
I was wondering if I could put one coat of gold paint down, let it dry good, maybe coat it with something, and then put the second coat (red) down and wipe off the red from the gold highlight areas.
I tried putting a coat of varnish over the gold, sprayed the red and started wiping it off with a rag and some diesel fuel I had on hand. That didn't work.
How would you guys do this?
