God i love my job playing with paint
« on: November 09, 2009, 08:18 PM »
been on a demo day today with a bloke from from one of my paint suppliers with some  """"""CHROME PAINT """""  that goes on anything
its a 14 coat system . when i paint my 1st demo he gave me a polish cloth about 10 seconds after i finished my last chrome coat and said
right now polish it  ??? .so i did and i was lost for words  AMAZING CHROME OUT OF A SPRAY GUN ..the only down side we used a HS lacquer
which takes the chrome affect away  a bit .....BUT i think if i try a 1 pak lacquer it might keep its mirror affect

I had a set of Pro Class rims powder coated in Chrome last week.  :4_17_5:
One build a year, the only way to get it right. No rushing involved.

looked into this myself ages ago but still on the verge at the mo as it could come back and bite you,

many new school bmx products are being done with this coating but are not lasting 5 minutes ???

these guys look as though there on it though :daumenhoch:
