I tried this for the first time a few years ago, and it works great provided you cut the foil very close to the emblems so the foil edge doesn't show through paint, and you keep you paint very thin so the words don't get filled in.
I've used a similar technique but with differing paint types. Painting over an enamel chrome/metal basecoat with an acrylic topcoat, then using a swab & 91% alcohol to rub away the acrylic paint layer. The alcohol won't affect the enamel. Works really great for engine valve covers with fine script or lines giving a brushed metal look 👍
Cool, I've never done that but knew the process. Looks like it works pretty good. I was always afraid of removing paint around the letters rather than just the letters, guess you have to really take your time.
Nice little tutorial. I’ve been considering trying this technique since I read about it awhile ago. Sure is great to see it done and get an idea on how it works. Thanks

This actually looks pretty good! A technique I might have to try as the old eyes can't cut each letter out! Thanks for posting!
Great video Rob thanks for sharing 👍🏻 👍🏻

Awesome Rob! That is nice when you can actually see what you were talking about. I understood what you meant though. Nice tip.
