Simple Chipped Paint Technique

Ever wanted to create realistic looking chipped paint effect without actually having to scrape off your top coat?
Here's a quick how to using SALT

Base coat your tank in whatever color you want under the chips.
When dry, moisten the surface with water - just enough so that salt sticks to the surface.
Apply salt wherever you'd like your chips - it acts as a mask.
Once the moisture has dried, paint your top coat and let that dry. After that, just brush off the salt to reveal your chips.
