2nd time coming back to this video to be mind blown. still impresses every time.

That's crazy, it's just running down the door in rivers, and the other guy hosing it down just left me with my jaw hanging open. I've never seen anything like that in painting in 48 yrs. And it looks incredible too. WOW!!!!!!

So I'm pretty sure chrome goes on black then they do a chemical etch of some sort. I looked up the process and it always starts black. Then they spray an activator rinse it with water then another activator which turns chrome. After that they spray a silver sealer and let it dry.

As far as I am concerned this is magic.

It is called SpectraChrome. It is a system you can get on Amazon for about 1500 dollars. It works by using a torch to heat up the project, then they use water to help the activator stick, then apply more water to make the chrome paint smoother, then they apply the chrome, then more water, then clear coat, then more water. As you can tell, they like water -_-

This brings a new meaning to mirror finish.

It's like magic, absolutely amazing!

Silver nitrate is sprayed on the car, then followed by SALT WATER (NaCl), the result is a double replacement reaction which produces AgCl (Solid silver coating) and NaNO3, so this is SILVER PLATING technique rather than chrome plating.

metallic horizons are the kings of this type of finishing i think! excellent video and process here as well..

These guys are brilliant.They can work on my car any day.

me impacto lo que hicieron..increible resultado...espectacular!!!mis felicitaciones..desde paraguay a toda esa gente..

It is a chroming system you can get on amazon for 1500 dollars. They use a torch to heat up the project they are painting then use water so the activator will stick better, then they use silver nitrate to chrome it then spray a deep coat of water again then clear coat it.

This process it really is as easy as you see it in the video, there are other steps you must learn.

I just pictured painting my entire truck with this stuff, that would be so cool!

The procces is almost as mirror making but chemicals are different.

The full chrome is cool, but at 50% with the underlying paint showing through looks the best.

Alsa Corp has quite a few different chrome painting systems in Vernon CA. I've been using they're solvent based and waterborne chormec painting ystems for years. In this application,everything is waterbase,they're just using water,ammonia and silver nitrate,the dust masks they're using are quite adequate.However,silver nitrate is definitley a hazmat and the runoff should be dealt with accordingly.I remember reading that the silver nitrate will completely ruin a septic tank

That looks really good!

After this process we also apply topcoat and clear coat, so is almost like regular car paint, except scratches.

@mikldude In general lasts like a normal car paint.....but is sensible to scratches since you can not just polish it, you migh need to remake the whole part.

Its water. The paint is temperatured to cold or warm which makes it change.

I read about it on wikipedia, and it said the same stuff that rokdevil said, non-harmful at low levels, and has been used for years for various medical treatments. It is harmful at higher levels or prolonged exposure, but I don't think that this 5 minute painting session counts as prolonged exposure.

This is the same concept of how mirrors are made. There is a video on How It's Made about mirrors and they spray on everything as well. Start out with clear glass and start spraying.

Yes, we use water too....but not only water :)

you have to coat it after this procedure, you can choose a colored finnisch like blue red etc.

It's disliked because the process of chroming is far more complicated and most of these videos are bogus and a money grab. Note that the two vertical posts that hold the door get tons of over spray but they do not chrome. Why? Because the door is already chrome and painted over in black. To dissolve the paint they use an agent that needs to be rinsed off otherwise it will begin to affect the true chrome being revealed. This is why the second water gun is needed. Now you know. Here's the real process. kzread.info/dash/bejne/h6Vkl6iOo6WZc6w.html They also don't show the bottom because you'd be watching black paint dripping off.

They make this look so easy!!!

As long as the "painters" use proper protection (NOT like in this video) AND the process is done in a closed,controlled environment AND the left-over chemical is either reused (if possible) or else DISCARDED OF PROPERLY AND a good,well-isolating coat is applied over that would prevent any leakage of the chemical from the car,THEN,yes,maybe then this would be a well-done and environmentaly-friendly proccess.But then again,there's a lot of "IFs" in the equation..

That door is going to burn the skin off somebody's hand. Chrome is the spot on your car where you're most likely to burn yourself because while it has high reflectivity, it also has extremely low emissivity. This means that the heat from the sun will build up in the metal substrate until it's much hotter than metal with a conventionally painted surface. One reason why very few cars have ever had chrome or stainless steel plates protecting the paint near the door windows where an arm or elbow would rest while driving.

It's actually like making a mirror as they're probably using the same chemicals. So I imagine you'd just clear it and call it good. Just like a normal paint job.

Nice work! Getting my A/C compressor and alternator done in this stuff (or same idea, cosmichrome), bling!!! Can't wait to get them back and installed.

Mekki Plating. This has been around for many years. 20 years ago I purchased a small setup from spectra chrome. They do habe a clear coat that lays down very well. Its all about the prep. Its not as easy as you make it look!! Yeah as far as the bandana yes cause the first drop of sweat that hits the pice, you are going to be redoing it all over. To completely do that door with the door jams you would've need another two guys. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. Just don't mislead people. The system looks great But doesn't last as long as paint and no where near the quality as real chrome. And another thing it will stain the shit out of you for days...Lmmfao!!. But good video of the two guys they was insink with each other. But to do the door with the jams it they would've need more help. I'm sure the jams had the brown stains going on. Lol...good demonstration....

Looks very labor intensive.

To keep the metal cool. See the two rods that are behind the door? This is a form of electroplating.

works good on healing burns too

I'd love my car to be done with just one coat of this. It looked cool after the first spray!

The right title should be "How to wash a black painted chrome door"

Wow. That looks awesome. How does it hold up on a Car? Does it dull, chip or tarnish over time? The two things that I hate to see go away for automobiles. Chrome/Bumpers and Whitewall Tires.Especially on Cadillacs.

NICE DAM JOB!!!! WOW!!! AMAZING

i can't believe i actually understood what you just said

Simply amazing and beautiful.I have a couple questions.Does it have to be applied to a black painted surface,or can it done over other colors or even bare metal?Does the base paint have to be scuffed first for adhesion?How can the silver stick to the door when the door is wet with water?It seems it would just wipe away like paint does when you have water in the spray gun.Thanks for the interesting video!

i use silver nitrate in the oilfield to run my mud check to calculate chlorides ie. salt content and it will stain ur fingernails until they grow out ! its some bad ass shit

i wonder if you coat it with clear would it fade much. or would the clear stick one day your using a pressure washer and boom there goes your clear. i like the idea its great

Safety precautions here are a joke and this is why Unions need to be active and check on work places constantly. Minimum safety should be full body covering, a full face mask with separate filtered air supply, protective gloves and shoe coverings. The booth should also be a sealed unit and and have an exhaust fan so the pressure inside the booth is lower than outside preventing any fumes or spray material escaping the booth to affect other workers.

Holy shit! Now I have seen it ALL! Spraying water on shit that they are painting! While painting it! Wow!!

Meu Deus! Essa tecnica sim é perfeita! Muito superior às outras!

Thank you, sir. I had no clue what I was watching. :]

This really isn't a chrome plating process. What you are looking at is the same thing mirror manufactors use to put the reflective coating that goes behind the glass in the mirror. The shiney material sticks to the product, the run off you see is water. It's a three step process. With nice results.

These doors in particular are a very water thirsty door, if you do not water these doors, they will reject the chrome spray.

Hi i have a couple of questions. I own " HYDROGRAPHIC WORKX " and was last week introduced to hydrochrome, after buying a hydrographic printer of a dude that had gone from doing hydrographics to hydrochrome.So seeing how easy it looked straight away knew i was going to expand my business,And im about to order a full set up, whilst i was at this dudes workshop i asked him a few questions about the hydrochrome .However he was like " IM NOT TELLING YOU TO MUCH " even though id travelled for over 2hrs to get the printer,so there would be no chance of me taking his customers..On seeing the items he had just chromed i thought sraight away being a car painter for 28yrs thought.The prepping process has to be the same as sparaying a car say,where as you would take the shine off the original paint then 2k filler prime the car then flat the 2k primer smooth then apply the colour and then clear coat. However is this the same with all materials as i watched a toilet being hydrochromed,so would i be right in saying there is a product on the market that keys pottery,like plastic primer as the product i use is clear and i can paint straight over the top of it if i wished to.i never do though i always apply 2k fillerprimer on any paint work i do.The hydrochrome system im about to buy is from these guys customcreationpaints.co.uk/ has anyone used the product there selling and is it top quality,if not can someone point me in the right direction as to where i can buy the set up from.. i also buy accident damaged cars and repair them to keep me busy when im quiet on the hydrographics,so know that im going to be itching to get a car in my paint booth within a couple of weeks to hydrochrome it ,then paint a candy colour clear coat over the top or illusion paint haha. Thanks for taking the time to read my post and any help as to what to watch out for and best way to achieve the best results

Where exactly do you read that silver nitrate is lethal or carcinogenic? I suppose you could say its lethal in large doses, sort of like oxygen. However, its been used for many medical issues, from warts to disinfection.

Better living through modern chemistry.

Silver Nitrate (AgNO3). It won`t harm the person WRONG 1-5 g of silver have accumulated in the body, a condition called argyria can develop.

Why is he rinsed with water immediately afterwards? Is there a possibility of causing damage?

how does the chrome stick if the other guy is spraying water on it at the same time

Great job

@NeoQuello Not sure.

@syamdanarta i use the spectra chrome system.. But im have over 20,000 in my set up...

I like the color

como se llama la pintura y el proceso que usan, osea: la base o lo que hace que sea cromado. saludos desde Mexico

The only real difficulty with chroming a car is that you have to have very, very smooth paint underneath it all. The smoothness of standard car paint is inadequate and any surface ripples will become immediately apparent. Factor in more than a dozen hours worth of labor in color-sanding alone just to prepare the surface for spraying.

Kustom Krome your are right to an extent. If you buy from many of the suppliers and use their products the way they say. You will have no luck. I've tried base/silver/clear from most the suppliers nation wide. I've been doing the silver nitrate process for 3 years now. It took 2 years of R+D and with the many years of coating experience me and my dad have. We have figured out how to get it to work AND last. Are earlier work has turned. No good. We learned more and more and more. And are still learning. But within the last year. I believe we got it. The only product we use that comes from chrome paint suppliers is the silver. BUT... if we start having problems after what we've learned. I'll give up. Because I've done almost everything I know to do. We have many customers now. That are businesses that tried this process and lost trend of thousands. Now they bring to us. It can be a decent finish IF done right.

We use to use silver nitrate to burn off warts in the Army. Pretty corrosive that's for sure.

How does this system differ from the other two leading sray chrome companies. What's better about this system? I see you spray water just after your spray the chrome spray unlike the other systems that do it step by step.

So there's a guy who sprays the plating, and the other guy seems to spray water on it. What's the water for?

The process is amazing, But, can't help thinking the process was rushed, and will make the finished job not as good as it should be.

How some cars got a colored chrome paint like blue chrome or red chrome?.. Mostly some Rolls Royce, Bentley etc in dubai

Very nice finish, but is this really chrome? It appears to be a silver metallized surface. The combination of two solutions through the nozzle at 0:45 looks like a silver solution with a reducer. I don't think there is an ounce of chrome in there...correct me if I'm wrong of course.

Silver nitrate, KOH, demineralized water, amonia and sugar.

looks great ... but where are your safety glasses ?

So does that mean that its hard to get the same intensity in color if you don't do the car with the exact same volume AgNO3 and salt water?

so they just take of your paint and make it shiny wonder how much it costs

it comes up nice, but how durable is it, if some accidentally scuffs it can it be polished out?, could you use it on alloy wheels, would it last??

dude why are they spraying the salt water for? I mean is the Silver nitrate that bad?

It's probably some quantum physics professors.
