What types of techniques do you use to simulate chip paints. I use Maskol and it works great!! But removing it takes forever. Is there any other good alternatives???

I'm suprised that this post has been up for almost a whole day with no responses. Am I to believe that no on here uses certain techniques to simmulate chip paint

After I complete all the basic painting that I need to do. I take my steel color and dry brush the areas that I want to reflect a chipped look or if the under coat is a different color than steel I will use that color instead. Like I said. Pretty simplistic. But it's the easiest way that I know of. Though you guys have some great approaches as well.
