The NOALOX is one of the biggest improvements in ensuring grounds and electrical connections I have found. It's specifically made for bimetallic electrical connections which often develop galvanic corrosion if left exposed.
Most of our muscle car connections are brass on brass however there are a number which are brass on steel or brass on zinc.

The Spatter paint is a mix I make using a not quite black Enamel with Catalyst and a waterbased aqua pickling tint from MINWAX.
I spray it using a pressure fed gun which mixes two products internally and has separate controls for the volume of each. I believe it was originally for Gelcoat or similar viscous liquid.
