don't know the name of the paint, could be the crackle paint mentioned above. but I think a base layer of red then black "crackle paint" the stuff that cracks as it dries and would leave red lines, could look smart.
or get it polished up, then get paint, put on brush and pull the bristles back so that dods of paint come off and splat all over, do it in a few different colours including some fourescent. could look cool
