I got a Testors pen,
I figured out you can trim the tip to make it more fine tipped.

I use Testors paint and a ruling pen (drafting instrument). Works better than any brush or paint pen that I have used in the past. The key is to get the paint a bit on the thick side so it loads and flows predictably.

Testors gold and a steady hand with a small paint brush. You can use the frame itself to "brace" your hand.

I've used a Uchida Liquid Gold (or Silver) opaque paint marker with satisfactory results. The nib can be sharpened with an Xacto knife. I think I got mine at Hobby Lobby. It goes without saying, practice on something (old bike frame?) before you use it on your project. Good luck!
