Wow. This is the first paint I've seen that even comes CLOSE to real chrome! Good to know I don't need to use a spray gun. Fabulous!

I bought this product the other day and just finished a job using it. The job was a steel roll cage. I've very impressed with the finish. Note: The service and advice I got from the guy in the video was excellent. He delivered the product himself and ran me through what was required. Good old fashion customer service at it's finest.

I've had this is my Watch Later list for like 5 years and I just now finally watched it. I regret putting it off so long. This video is great. You can tell alot of time and money was put into making the video. I'm glad I know about this product.

Thanks for providing a professional presentation using reasonable scientific method of comparisons. So nice to see a proper and comprehensive comparison. Hopefully others will learn from this.

Great video, looks like a good product. I've always had the issue with painting plastics with chrome that when I apply a clear coat on top, it clouds the chrome completely. This at least seems to retain some gloss after clear coating. Thanks again.

This product looks easy to use & the finished product looks absolutely amazing!!! Thank you for sharing.

I learned a lot from this presentation! I am sold!

Amazing product and results, not often one is impressed by the way a product is presented, well done.

It's definitely a more dull finish for sure, but for a cheap quick and easy chrome solution, it's the bomb!!!!! thanks for sharing your hard work man.

I remember back when they came out with this and the other method. The paint version seems to been improved but hard to tell on video. In the past, it was ok/good looked like a fogy chrome hard to describe. The other method they had was a few step process with special equipment but made anything look like real chrome. For years ALSA was big at the SEMA show. Interesting very little shops in my are used ALSA most used house of kolor for custom paints. Only had one company sell ALSA in my area before they closed down and they seemed to not sell much of it. Even tho they make good products and not overpriced but not cheap at the same time. Anyway thanks for sharing in detail keep up the good work.

This is an awesome idea. I wish they had this paint when I had my shop. I can think of a few things I would have painted with this chrome paint. When you did the side by side comparison with the true chrome bumper and the painted chrome bumper they were pretty close. If you payed attention you could see the very slight difference between the two but it was minimal. Obviously the painted chrome won't be as durable as the chrome plating but anyone who expects paint to hold up as well as plating are idiots. The chrome paint is an excellent idea that can be used on fiberglass or plastic bumpers. You can have the look of chrome without the price and labor of plating. I am definitely keep this in mind for my next project vehicle like my 1979 VW Stallion Trike. I bet candy paint would look amazing sprayed on top of the chrome paint. I would have loved to use the chrome paint for flames on my custom, full custom, slammed Chevy dually.

While I certainly couldn't shine your shoes when it comes to spray painting... wouldn't it be advisable to just spray the entire thing, then clear again?

Hello! That is magic, best crome paint so far! ❤️✨🎨🇸🇪

I own a 2004 Chevy Silverado, with factory chrome wheels that are in absolutely terrible condition despite carefully taking every possible precaution of protection during winter road salt, etc. What do you think about trying Easy Chrome on these instead of replacing the wheels ?

That as a base coat for candy paints would be amazing

I think there are some visible differences between the painted and the real chrome bar. The reflections on the real chrome bar are way more crispier and not so washed out. Also the real chrome seems to have a higher contrast, because of darker blacks, while the painted looks more greyish and foggy.

Yeah a little troubling from an honesty standpoint for a painter to say "can't tell the difference" I have a go to painter for our show cars. I pay him because he is super anal about his work. There are things that we have had to argue with him were not an issue that he absolutely REFUSED to let leave his shop as they were. It can be annoying when we have deadlines since he is outsourced labor but its much better than other painters where we had to argue with them that they WERE going to fix it They would have said something like "can't tell the difference" when you clearly can. Our painter would have said "not even remotely close" even though its good enough to pass and acceptable based on work effort and price.

Thanks for this video! Could I use this chrome paint to paint raised letters using the same technique you showed in your video about painting raised letters?

I want to make the raised logo on my spark plug cover look chrome while painting the rest of the spark plug cover the same color as my car.

That came out great. Perhaps a bit less mirrored than the real chrome, but close enough. I wonder how it compares to Alclad II chrome paint. That's what Winston Studios used for the T-800s in Terminator Salvation. Alclad II (Alclad 2) is designed for small scale paint jobs, though.

Outstanding presentation! A little too fast for me as you talk about special primers and such so fast I could not follow. Questions: 1.) Does it always require the base coat and is your black base coat the only one that works? 2.) Do you have what I thought you said you have which is a simple spray paint can (disposable) "rattle can" that we are all so familiar with? I have to touch up some motorcycle rims that have rust areas on otherwise perfect chrome. I just need a spray can to recoat the areas that have rust (I will remove before painting chrome) do you have a product like that or again, is it always a two-step process? Thanks again. Great Product!!

I am relatively impressed with the results out of curiosity does the final product need the Clear Coat ? A Decent high quality Clear Coat is up there in Price these days Of course due to Enviormental issues Chromeing is also very Costly and getting harder to have done inamerica i did a Antique Car in the 1980s and that wasn’t too awfully difficult to get done although i did have to pay for Shipping to and from Florida where i lived then and had my Shop

Just to remind you, it is NOT PAINT. It's really silver that goes through a complicated reaction to precipitate directly on the surface. It took a lot of r and d to create this, and if another method is more cost effective for you, then feel free to use it.

Just a heads up, that gallon depicted in the video is $4000. So is it really a better option?

I'd like to see if it can be polished to get a better finish and if it'll wear off as well as wear off due to UV light/rain over time. Will it stain from rain marks on a car over time and how stone chip resistant is it?

@modern studies skilled workers grinding and polishing, then skilled chemistry croming. Plus lots of materials stripping acid, grinding disks, cotton sanding wheels, sandpaper, buffing wheels. Then all the chemicals need for the actual plating. All good chrome goes copper, then back to polishing, then nickel, and finally chrome. You might have to buffing the nickel and chrome as well. Also it's a luxury, where I work does show chrome.
