Bud... I'm using Alclad II on the BUDD cars I've built. You can vary the Alclad II finish by selecting from their various types of "silver" and/or by making the black undercoat primer lighter. These cars are done using a mix of 2/3 "Polished Aluminum" with 1/3 "Stainless Steel". They have everything from SS to Chrome, including weathering colors (add "smoke" to roofs, etc.). Bob Hogan
