I had the chance to use some of Splash Paints new Mirror Chrome Metalizer for an upcoming build. 

I have to say, I have sprayed a lot of SpazStix and Alclad chrome and this so far tops them both.

With Splash’s new Mirror Chrome, you don’t have to worry about smudging, printing, or the chrome wiping off with too much handling. Also, when using BSI Gold, it doesn’t remove the chrome color to expose the black base underneath. 

It is sprayed the same way that SpazStix or Alclad is sprayed, over a 2k Gloss Black base then shot at 15psi in overlapping light coats. 

This is definitely a paint I would recommend checking out if you’re looking to add some nice robust chrome paint to your arsenal.

Finally, a review by someone who actually has used Alclad. I still use Alclad for almost all metal finishes, I will have to get some of this stuff to check out.

I love Alclad chrome, but it’s just not durable enough to handle or place ca glue/ca kicker on without killing the finish. 

Splash has knocked it out on the durability of this paint.
