Paint on rear window chrome pieces, '65 Barracuda

I had this '66 piece replated for my '65. The pits are still there. I didn't use any primer. I probably just cleaned it with lacquer thinner and used lacquer paint. I think I actually silver painted the fin area and wiped the top. A thick grease is your friend where masking tape can't get it done.

DC 340, I've thought about dealing with the small fins as you mentioned. Brushing a sliver/chrome paint on the top then wiping off to reveal the chrome while leaving the paint in the crevasses. I may experiment on my spare set.
