Thanks guys. If I'm doing a full repaint I get all the old paint off using aircraft remover. I usually then paint my main color with spray can. On the small stuff or random panels I use testors paint with a small brush. Most of the time I paint all the chrome parts with testors aluminum. I also use testors dullcoat in a spray can if I want it to have a satin finish. And on the "rust" like on the gasser I mix vinegar and hydrogen peroxide in a cup and then add steel wool and let it sit for 5-10 minutes. Then dab the car using the soaked steel wool in the areas you want to rust. Let it dry and continue with more coats until you get your desired look. I use a heat gun to dry to make everything faster.
A few more.
