Brushed Aluminum look using paint...

[Boyd]

I want the brushed aluminum look for my headlight bezels and was thinking of using the Eastwood chrome paint and then very lightly scuffing them. Has anyone else tried something similar? What other techniques are out there to give the brushed aluminum look?

I reccomend powder coating.

powder coat is your best bet

If you are going for the brushed aluminum look you just scotch bright the chrome and that is the look you will get. They should be chrome now and if you lightly scotch bright them they will get that brushed look. We do it all the time on cars. Look at the front end of our blazer that is all brushed.
