The Mercedes kit comes with a standard plastic instrument panel that I wanted to make look like wood with silver instrument rings.Rather than make it in wood like I usually would do I decided for fun I would try to simulate the wood with paint.
If you try to paint the panel and then attempt to drive yourself crazy trying to paint small silver circles I decided to take a different approach.First,clean the plastic as usual,then spray it with Gesso and let it set overnight so their is no danger of it lifting off during the next step.
