 I've never used the foil, though it sounds interesting.  Being lazy, 
I glued 0.005" styrene across the roof of JC Models cars so I did not 
have to sand seal.  Years ago I also used Testor's Chrome paint.  The 
finished passenger cars looked great but were easily marred and were 
very hard to fix decals or dry transfers to.  Hopefully chrome paints 
available today are more durable and easier to finish...
