Hi guys, i was wondering if you can help me out whit this problem. I wanted to know what techniques you use to paint (?) or any other way of enhancing those small letters and car badges. Sorry if I don't express myself very well but English is not my mother language.
Thanks for your time and help.
Cheers,
Gustavo

Welcome to AF!

Well, if you look here, they've got great ways to paint, and other cool
ideas for your model: AF Car Modeling Tutorial, How-To and Product (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=215864)
Review Depository It's at the top of the car modeling topics. As for
the lettering, I use either bare metal foil, which is like a thin
adhesive-backed foil, or a paint marker.

Hi,
one of the best ways is to use Bare Metal Foil, and apply it to the bare plastic, then prime and paint over it like normal, and after poilish away the paint to reveal the scripts and emblems
