A certain man known only as "Bob" showed me the finish on their factory T-33 with metal cote and the walkway.
He said they used an old spray gun and mixed micro balloons with black paint. Now I am sure he said it was microballoons but could be mistaken. However it was definitely done with an old spray gun for obvious reasons... It was superb, and faultless to look mind a lot of effort had gone into this model to finish it, have a look at the site, bvm jets of course!! Its the one with the green foredeck,
Hope that may help,
