GaryR Posted August 26, 2019 Posted August 26, 2019 Don't have or want an airbrush! Don't want to wait or spring for plating, so what is the best rattle can substitute? Will the Alclad in spray for Lexan work with a barrier coat under it? Isn't the gloss black just that? I need something that won't eat resin. What say ye?
Dave Van Posted August 26, 2019 Posted August 26, 2019 I order chrome spray from 'Bombing Science' online. Owner says it's Molotow in a can. I love it an am on my 2nd 600 ml can....check it out.
GaryR Posted August 26, 2019 Author Posted August 26, 2019 Ok. Which can? ;looks like several choices, they say fat cap" ???????????? and high pressure, not for small items? Which one do you use? AND does it work well on resin? THANKS!
1972coronet Posted August 26, 2019 Posted August 26, 2019 I've had the best luck and best results with this stuff . No need for special base coats ; no need for specific-colour bases ; looks just as impressive whether the base is flat , satin , or gloss . And , it flashes quickly ; safely can be handled within 24 hours ; is impervious to multiple handlings .
Nacho Z Posted August 26, 2019 Posted August 26, 2019 Gary, I had had good results with this, Spaz Stix Mirror Chrome.
Lyle Siemens Posted August 26, 2019 Posted August 26, 2019 I have used the duplicolor chrome many times. It doesn't like anything touching it. I haven't tried future though but any other type of clear will turn it grey. It works very well as long as you don't handle it too much after.
NOBLNG Posted August 26, 2019 Posted August 26, 2019 Sorry, but I have no Idea how this might work on resin, but this gives you an idea of the appearance. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/141139-krylon-premium-original-chrome/

Ace-Garageguy Posted August 26, 2019 Posted August 26, 2019 After exhaustive "real world" testing, this guy prefers the Spaz Stuff... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XkG5kW3u6kQ
