if I were you I would use a piece of clear decal painted silver ( aluminium ). Then I would cut off strips of the correct width using a scalpel and a matal ruler. A such decal strip is of fine thickness and more flexible what results in better sticking to the model surface. Also it is possible to use the Sol and Set liquids like for all the decal markings.
What a beauty, extra special and very battle worn.
