interior vents

Has anyone tried Inline Tube chrome paint marker or the Color-rite marker?

If you're looking for info on chrome paint markers, you should change the title of your post.

Some time ago, a member here suggested Molotow Liquid Chrome. Available at Amazon. I've been using it for years since then and it's excellent.

I went to Hobby Lobby or such like that and bought a silver paint pen. Later I saw same thing on ILT and other places for 3 times the $. Paint pen works good though not a chrome finish, more a shiney silver, better than the worn off tan color.

molotow puts any silver to shame,i was skeptical, now its the pen to go too. and you can get a refill bottle for the pens.

You can get it in 1mm, 2mm, and 4mm. I have all three, but mostly use the 4mm.

Can Molotow be airbrushed? Seems like it would be hard to apply and look good by hand. If done by hand, how many pens are required to do a dash?
Thanks all for your responses. I'm restoring a 70 W30

I redid just the dash housing and the glovebox, with one pen and probably would of had enough to do the vents too. You want to try to do a steady even stroke with enough paint to cover in one pass. If you have to go back to touch it up sometimes you can see a difference between the two coats. I posted pictures in the link below.
