What I found on a 69 NOR 07A M20 Z28:



The third stripe was different than the first two in that it wasnt the shiny metal underneath, but there was definately a brushed orange stripe there.

Here's what I did. It's a Trans Am but the process is similar: https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/showflat...e=0&fpart=9

If you have something available you could do them the way they were originally applied from the manufacturer. I have put them in a lathe with front and rear yokes removed and used a brush to apply them as the shaft was turning slowly.
