Silver touch up paint for dash bezels etc.

[ffgreg32]

Has anyone touched up the silver edges for their dash bezel, or other interior dash parts where the silver edge has been rubbed or worn off? If so, what paint, pen, color, manufacturer (Pictures?) Thanks in advance, Greg

I used a Testors paint pen (Silver). May take a couple of passes.

I have bought the Molotow markers, but have not tried them out yet. I'm glad to hear you guys are liking them. I want to touch up the dash in my Plymouth.

Sharpie silver markers work good for flat silver. Easy to use and cheap.

I just did some touch up liquid chrome from Hobby Lobby and I’m very happy with the results. I bought the 1mm,2mm and 4mm tips. I also purchase a white fine tip paint marker in white for the lettering. I’m not a profession but happy with the results. I also did overlays on my gauges along with polishing the lens. I did not redo the black as I didn’t want a completely restored instrument cluster since my car is not restored. Below is a before and after

I used Molotow chrome pens to redo my ‘70 Coronet dash. They work great. You need patience and a steady hand. If you don’t have both of these you will need a plan B. But it goes surprisingly fast once you get after it.

Well done sir!

Thank you
Also did a quartz conversion. First time doing any of this. If I can do it I promise anyone can.

I just saw an older episode of Overhaulin the other day, and Chip Foose brushed on a real nice silver paint around the fronts of the gauge cluster on a '67 Camaro 4-speed car....the one with RS & SS stripes combined plus an additional red pinstripe around those white stripes. For a Chebby, it actually turned out real nice.
