Despite being a pilot, I model narrow gauge railways and not aircraft! I have built a 1930s art deco model railcar in 1:76 scale and wish to find a good airbrush painter in the UK who can finish it using one of these new fancy paints to accurately simulate polished aluminium.

Could someone kindly point in the right direction?

The model railway folks actually do not know...I have posted on this site as so many model aircraft are painted in polished aluminium!
