The Moltow black ink (through an airbrush) is the best black primer you will ever see. It goes on beautifully thin (airbrush), requires no dilution, covers and STICKS to any surface (even the old bones right out the pack), and is beautifully matte and intensely black. 10/10 must try!
By any chance do you have the exact name of the ink? I see lots of things in their site and i wanna be sure i try the one you're mentioning and not a different one
You might already know this, but priming with a gloss black primer (or spraying chromes and metallics over gloss black paint in a pinch) can enhance the shiny-shiny even more and make the chrome effect more reflective :)
Molotow's chrome makes a fantastic base for transparent colors, as well. Lacquer candy coats go especially well on top of it, though transparent acrylics create great effects as well.
Word of advice from a Molotow fan- thin the stuff with Mr. Levelling Thinner (or your favourite equivalent). It becomes far easier to work with and you get MUCH better results.
Regarding the "hydrophopic" problem, I've also faced the same issue with other paints, so I'd like to offer my simple solution: a light coat of matte spray varnish, ideally one formulated for plastic applications. My favorite for this purpose (and all-round) is Rust-Oleum's Chalked clear matte varnish, it sticks really well to smooth surfaces, it doesn't turn yellow, and it dries to the touch in half an hour, giving tou a nice, very slightly rugged surface to work on. Word of advice: leave the piece outside at least two hours, mostly because this varnish STINKS LIKE HELL!!
Did you have any problems with cure time? I tried using this exactly once and never again, because even three weeks after application it smudged immediately upon touch.
You can use Aqua Gloss from Alclad to gloss coat it. It will knock the shine back ever so slightly, but you can put it on right after the chrome and handle in 30 minutes.
I first tried this paint a couple of years back (just airbrush, no marker tests) and felt like if you were going to be weathering on it at all you were probably better served by using something else but if you needed shiny-shiny chrome is was pretty amazing.

well me i ues paint pens or this type of pen as tuch ups or details say trim but not hole thing now air brush do not have that take the paint out and put in a difrent tub or botale you can ho the mini looks good and when do it will see it post that is

One tip that I found on the Molotow, put the item in a dehydrator to let it cure. Comes out better.

Nice video. There's a few useful weathering tips in there that could apply to any model.

This kills the chrome, instantly dead, ends up looking like common cheap silver paint, this chrome ink thing is *extremely* delicate
