I used createx flourescent raspberry, opaque purple and white for the drops. You'll have to experiment with it a little until you get used to the color.

here's an older example using blue and whit, although almost any color works...

That is just genius dead simple... I will definately be trying that method...

Alclad makes a chrome as well as Spastic. As far as differences, you can not scuff th inside of the body before spraying or it will look "brushed". Alclad has to be backed up with black, not sure about Spastic's chrome.
