Found a few Youtube videos about this spray on chrome. Looks pretty cool. Anyone know anything about it or tried it.


I'm thinking of all the bits I want to revamp on cars and bikes I'm working on.

Or Maybe I'll just blind the crap out of every poor bugger on the Stuart Highway! Do a Bug like this door!

I have used the Chrome spray cans available from most auto shops

And was quite good. But nothing like that sort of finish. I would also like to know more about this stuff, as that is a great finish.

years ago wasn't a bad finish but not as good as the REAL CHROME

That's what I'm thinking. Have looked at a few more vids, read a bit. Might be good for restoration on dashboards, grills, bits with very little wear. Show car type stuff.
Now to find out a cost! Probably an arm and leg.
