It had me puzzled as to why there were silver specklesin the black base on my bike tank, not all close together, but spread apart, then it dawned on me.
I was using an old aluminium pot to tip 2 lots of mixed paint into and using a SS stirrer which I made, you can see where it's been scratching the alloy, hence it's been coming out in the mix.
The sun on them looks groovy, I'm gonna leave 'em there as I reckon they'll look good with clear and buff.
Nothing special I suppose as adding a pinch of silver flake would be the same.
If anything it might be a warning of what not to do, use a SS mixer on aluminium.
