I tried with a paint pen-wasn't steady enough. I had the painter who did my car do it-same paint pen-steadier hand! Turned out fine.

Use liquid mask, available at hobby stores. Brush it on where you don’t want the paint, let it dry, shoot it with the black and peel off the mask, comes out perfect!
 
I used 1/8” fine line tape to mask the grill on my Coronet.
