Cue a quick stop at woodshop for sanding the pieces for increased adhesion, and we can move onto the painting! I got to use some leftover Rustoleum Metallic paints, which are some of my favorites. My #1 is the darker color, their "oil-rubbed bronze", and I also got to use some of their "aged copper". These paints are a rattlecan primer meant for basically any material, and produce a great metallic finish. While it's not chrome, it's enough to use on its own, or build up layers on top of that for some really complex finishes.
