    I have an old stiff brush I use for stuff like this.

    Dip in the powder.

    And flick over the engine by pulling your finger through the bristles.

    You should end up with this

        Hi all this is how I do engine cases.

        So first I prime it.

        Then dab white in random places.

        Then since it's already a light grey primer, I add a bit of darker grey(just for a bit of variation)

        Now I just use a stiff brush lightly loaded with AK steel

        And scrub over it all.

          OK so now I mix a wash up using

          [ATTACH]437382[/ATTACH]

          It's a very thin wash and I just run it in the nooks and crannies.

          Then I make another thin wash using

          [ATTACH]437383[/ATTACH]

          I put this over the whole engine(very quick don't move it about as you will wet the silver and it will all just end up looking a dirty mess) I let that dry then use

          [ATTACH]437384[/ATTACH]

          And dust it all over the engine and give it a little buff up.
