I remember back when I first joined this list making a comment about
that "ugly wrinkle paint"
John Hauck didn't take it kindly.  Reason for my opinion was
having seen so many of the
old planes done badly with it, drips runs, sags, etc. Done right it
looks ok but tends to hold dirt.
Next time I do my panel over I'll go with a darker color to kill
reflection into the windshield.
Easy way is to glue (rubber cement) a flat texture laminate sheet,
aka formica, onto the aluminum.
There are an infinite number of colors available. Easy to work
with. If you put it on a
panel with pre-existing holes you can cut it close to the edges with
snips and finish to flush
with a half-round file. It comes in different thicknesses, get the
thin stuff.
