fseva Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) This is a fairly new product here - if you've used it - is it any easier to get a durable chrome look with this product? Perhaps you could draw some comparisons with Alclad and Ultimate Chrome (Spaz Stix)... Edited May 25, 2015 by fseva
High octane Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 Front runner Alclad? I guess that you haven't tried Spaz-Stix yet?
fseva Posted May 25, 2015 Author Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) Front runner Alclad? I guess that you haven't tried Spaz-Stix yet? Oh yes I have, and it may be a better chrome than Alclad, but I was simply stating a perception... And why the heck are you going off-topic?! You want to sing the praises of Ultimate Chrome...

taaron76 Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 Front runner Alclad? I guess that you haven't tried Spaz-Stix yet? I tried Spaz Stix and didn't have any success... followed the directions to the T. Tim
fseva Posted May 25, 2015 Author Posted May 25, 2015 I tried Spaz Stix and didn't have any success... followed the directions to the T. Yeah, that's exactly why I'm interested in Xtreme Chrome - didn't have any real repeatable success with either Alclad or Ultimate Chrome (Spaz Stix). So, hopefully someone has tried Xtreme Chrome and can report...
fseva Posted May 25, 2015 Author Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) RELATED OPINION Personally, I don't believe that a black backer is all that necessary, and certainly does NOT make the chrome look... chromier... It may help smooth the surface a bit, but let's face it... If you did a poor job of smoothing your surface, ain't nothin's gonna make up fer it! It's only important if you're working on the INSIDE of a lexan body - then, you need a backer to really give the chrome some pop, but in this example, the visible side of the chrome never actually touches the black - it's truly a... "backer"! Edited May 25, 2015 by fseva
