A question in aliminum finish

Hello, friends.
I have a little question:

If i print a model card (like Nobi's Martin XB-51), in wich the aluminum color is simulated with very light gray, in silver card, the finish is like aluminum?
Or not?

Very thanks.

i think it would be better to erase the light gray color and leav the lines & decals and print it on the silver card so you will have the silver as your color.if not you will have the light gray color on the silver card...thass no point in using this card.

I've printed this model on silver card and it comes out looking OK as is i.e. without any editing - the only thing is that the marking are somewhat subdued but the Hustler design thread has a good discussion on methods of addressing this.
