Here is my model.. I put a dull metal finish on using my own 2 part process using a primer and dark gray. As you see the salt thing is pretty easy only needing water.. to hold the salt down to the model, and salt.. I used kosher salt seems to work a bit better.
As you can see the model is wet and has the salt on it. To do that I used a paint brush and my finger to apply the water where I wanted. To apply the salt, I just used my fingers and pinched it on then "smoothed" it out where I wanted it.
Heres just another picture of the water and salt
After letting the water to evaporate and the salt to dry throughly. I applied a coat of RAL yellow, and let that dry thoughly.
Once the last coat of paint dried its time to take off the salt. I used my finger and the good ol' exacto-knife and got the salt off. I kept a can of compressed air near by to spray off any of the loose salt too.
The once the salt was off I then went on with the model. Applying the decals, spraying it with a dull clear coat, then weathering to my liking. I will be posting some pictures of the finish model shortly. Hope this helped!
