It's worth trying this primitive method. Using a piece of copper rod (Available at hobby shops), solder x 6 pieces of electrical 2.5mm single strand copper wire as pictured. Simply dip in shallow pool of paint and dab randomly onto the cabinet. Practise on cardboard to get desired effect.
Thanks for that idea, I haven't seen it before so it is worth a try, at least on scrap to develop a technique and if successful then on the cabinet.
Much appreciated.
