Haven't tried that either.  One method at a time.  Thanks for the heads up though, cross that one off the list of things to try. (in the modelling world)

I just recenetly picked up some Model Master Chrome BMF and I hate it!

The thing was though, I felt that it was thinner--and a lot harder to work with! I hate, HATE the glue that they use on it--what a PITA! I found that it ripped a lot easier, and was a lot harder to burnish down as a result---I'll never purchase it again. 

Bare-Metal BMF is the way to go!

As far as your SuperBird goes, I think it looks fine, to be honest!
