1. You don't need to spray it over enamel, lacquer works fine. I think Alclad chrome only needed enamel because it bonded to it better to prevent rubbing off.

2. Since Silver Plate has no problems problems with rubing off and is quite tough - it doesn't require a sealer.

3. It works just as well over a grey primer coat as a gloss black base.

4. For a really good finish to the Silver Plate a super smooth base coat is essential.

5. The thinner that comes in the package doesn't seem to make much of a difference, normal lacquer thinners work just as well for me.

6. As a bonus you can tip the tinner into a spare container and you are left with a nice clean paint jar for mixing - neato.

7. I love this stuff and am ordering some more!

Where did you get yours from? I've tried HLJ and 1999.co.jp and no luck so far. Also have you had any luck brush painting it?
