Look for paint pens, I used them to highlight a cast iron piece that I painted. They work a lot better than trying to paint highlights with a brush.

I've got to hand it to you. When your done with that thing it'll be a piece of art.
A person who could really read human minds would be privileged to gaze on some correct imitations of chaos.

And I'm proud to be an American,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.

I'm late getting here, but I've really enjoyed the restoration process. Very impressive work WG!
My friends call me Bob. My wife calls me a lot worse.
