My rear boot badge has lost its coloured enamel, I looked at replacement and at £35 or £38 ish I thought better of that. As I could not work out why the two colours are green and orange, can anyone enlighten, I thought I would re-paint with Revel model enamel colours being a traditionalist even before current activities which I support I chose red and blue. They looked fabulous until I tried to touch up a tiny over paint with a scalpel only to find neither had stuck to the base and came off so easily. I put this down to the shiny chrome not having enough ability to allow the enamel to adhere. I am a little unsure about giving the shine a little rough up for fear of collateral damage. Has anyone done anything like this successfully? and How.
