Love to see the handy work you are doing. What is the grey paint you are using? Is it brushed on?

Thanks!

This is the paint i use:

http://www.glasurit.com/at/glasurit-801-704-cv-grundfueller-ep-chromatfrei

Right, i brushed it on the little parts.
This is also a filler wher you can directly put the paint on it, so i finally have only two layers of Paint on it, Original.
