warbirds Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Chrome is the thing holding me up on my large car build....anyone have any suggestions? The best I have heard so far is to use Molotow liquid Chrome refills and use their contents in a spray gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteski Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) Alsa chrome might work for you, especially on larger parts. Here is a good place to start (the info is hidden in a hubcap thread). Edited June 26, 2019 by peteski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warbirds Posted June 29, 2019 Author Share Posted June 29, 2019 Is there anything in a easy to find spray can that might come close to Easy Chrome? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brudda Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 My friend Mark tried this stuff. I ordered it from amazon. Not really expensive. Just apply like alclad . Base black with this over it. He says it’s a little stronger than alclad. We will see this weekend. I have a 32 ford I’m having trouble deciding a color. Might use this and see if it will work. It might work for you.

Nacho Z Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 I just shot some Spaz Stix on some smaller engine parts. I have used it several times on smaller parts. I have been pleased with the results. Not truly chrome but way better than silver spray paints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugatti Fan Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 This might be worth a try as it worked well when I tried it. First coat was white automotive primer (aerosol), When dry it was rubbed VERY gently with worn wet n dry, just enough to take away the powdery feel that you get with primer paint. after dusting off I sprayed with an aerosol polished metal finish. I let this dry thoroughly and went over it with Johnsons Klear ( I think it has been renamed Future now). This dulled the shiny finish a bit but left a hard coat on the part when it had dried. Now for the finishing touch I used C1's polishing powder and it buffs upwell to a high shine. The beauty of this stuff is that you can handle it afterwards.
