BVM METAL-KOTE
We have developed a new finishing system that will allow your jet to look like real aluminum. It is a spray-on system verses the painstaking application of metalized film like Presto.
This photo shows how BVM's new Metal-Kote compares to the automotive finish on the prototype F-100D. It's tough to show in a digital photo on your screen, but the average reaction when we show a sample to any modeler is "wow, it looks like real aluminum".
To familiarize yourself with how Metal-Kote works, we recommend you download the Metal-Kote instructions - click here to download the instructions (.pdf format).
