You will be covered in the prettiest "HO" glitter (clean shop thoroughly afterward,... it will get into EVERYTHING) ..... After that's cured, shoot the Bentley Blue. Do several test panels (small but big enough to see well) to get used to the amount to lay down to achieve the Sonic Blue outcome.

I did my Hitch reciever piece and it came out pretty close using ultimate chrome or something like that as a base. The Alien silver is THE basecoat for it though.
