Bare Metal Foil - When in the build process to apply

I would do it after all the painting/sealing but pre-weathering.   

Thanks!  I ended up applying then sealing.  I was worried that the clear coat (tam X-22) would take away from the look of the aluminum, but it looks great.

I'll post up pics when finished.  It was a lot easier to do that I thouhgt.  Gonna see where else on future models I can use this stuff as it is pretty cool looking when done.

Thanks!
