100% agree , I wet sanded up to 3000 between each black base , and it was so shiny and reflective , I gave it many days between coats , this chrome is enamel , which makes a big difference as it won't react to lacquer bases , and their clear coat barely tints the finish .

Try “glazing putty” on the pits after the 1st 2 primer coats than wet sand, works great.

I know they aren't paint but I purchased a couple of chrome marker pens with a variety of tip sizes and I'm impressed with the results. The finish has a 90% chrome like luster, and it's actually great for repairing chrome pieces with rust marks or other minor damage. I repaired my cars chrome steering wheel emblem and it's hard to pick where the original chrome had flaked off the plastic, and it's holding up well. I also filled a few pits in a fender after treating with rust converter using a q tip, and so far after using the marker pen the results are well blended, still visible as a slight blemish but overall the repairs are not noticeable.

They are paint, I do believe they're oil based,and you can clear coat them

In a past life I worked on propulsion controls for the USN. When we did an overhaul/rebuild on the system components, we would use a coat of silver then clear to give them a cadmium grey look.

by the time you buy all that paint you could order a brand new chrome covered part for pennys on the dollar

I used chrome spray on my stainless steel outdoor table that was starting to rust. I sanded it well and cleaned it well and sprayed it twice. After it dried I sanded it very lightly with very fine sandpaper and gave it two coats of clear gloss. It looks good but not chrome. More of a light grey. I am satisfied with how my table looks since it was really looking shabby but thinking it was going to be chrome was a fantasy.

Just an FYI, never wear gloves with a bench grinder, if the glove wraps around the wheel you probably won't be giving anyone the finger anymore.

I have to disagree with you on that one. There are a lot of tools where it is essential to NOT wear gloves. Drill presses and lathes are two perfect examples. Very dangerous to wear gloves with these tools. Basically, any powerful machine that spins something that can catch the glove and pull you in. However, abrasive tools like grinding wheels and SOFT wire wheels are extremely unlikely to grab a tight-fitting glove and pull your hand in. However, these tools will remove the skin from your knuckles in a heartbeat if they bump the wheel or if the thing you're holding catches and pulls your hand in for a knuckle bump on the wheel. If you use grinders for any time at all, you'll know what I'm talking about. It WILL happen - MANY times.

What year is this? Dude, I have used spray chrome paint back in the past century. Worked for me & looked good 😊

Awesome video man

Filler primer and black epoxy paint makes a good look for those carb tops..

Spaz stix has two blends. One for inside lexan and has to be backed, and they make a outside formula, to put on like normal over a base. But if you want craziness, a company called alsa makes amazing chrome like you see on lambos and stuff like that.

I used that chrome paint to turn a piece of glass into a mirror, it worked perfectly. Water based clearcoat is the best to top the chrome paint as an intercoat, then spraymax can be applied days later. Your gloss black basecoat works best when you use a 2K product and allow it to fully cure. Also, several extremely light coats of the chrome yield a better result than fewer thick coats. Createx offers a great water based clearcoat line that requires their reducer, but there is a learning curve for using it. Barbetos Rex has a lot of content for spraying chrome paint, great stuff. 😊👍

Spaz Stix is normally meant for the RC bodies. Since we paint those on the inside to avoid scratches, the inside part of the body always looked gray, like what you have achieved.

Here’s a good tip for you to use. Use golf tea’s upside down to hold up small parts that have a hole in them. A good stable base! And, on the painting small items like that was a heat gun on the lowest setting, after a few minutes of spraying . To help bake and set the parts coating even better.

Your results match with my own. I was trying various spray-paints that said they were "Chrome" finish. I tried several on some electronic transformer end bells and was never pleased with the results. I had one that approached what I wanted, but when the paint dried, if you ever touched it with your fingers it ruined the finish. I tried spraying it with various clear coats or clear lacquer to protect the finish and every thing I tried ruined the finish I already had.

It was worth a shot.

Being in the auto body business you're supposed to send the primer between coats the smooth and fill in clean off and so the black paint has something to stick to like the sanded surface of the primer you must send it primer is like a liquid filler

I've used dupli color chrome and it has stayed light gray ,i've put 2 clear cots and it has stayed light gray again.

you should have done multiple super light sprays. Thats why you use black as a base, you just covered the thing in the chrome paint, it needs just a thin layer.

Reflection in any surface is a function of smoothness. If it's not a perfectly smooth surface it will not reflect. So, there was not hope for your project regardless what it was painted with. In the painting segment, there was a lot of blushing going on throughout...for several reasons...primarily not enough cure time between coats...way too close when spraying and paints that dry too quickly. The "chrome" color blushed instantly when it hit the surface of your part. Consider using slow drying paints. Colors that takes hours to dry allows the paint time to smooth out and become more reflective before it becomes hard.

Let the primer dry totally, wet sand between coats, with 600. I like the glazing putty to fill the pits in the metal, let putty dry and sand smooth, prime again and lightly wet sand . I think the gloss black would look better than the fake chrome.

Maybe that the black was not cured yet. In this case, you don't want any of the chrome paint "reacting" with the base, so you want the base well and truly cured first.

Spaz Stix is meant to go down in many very light coats, not heavy coats. The idea is to layer the metallic slowly and flat to achieve a "like" chrome appearance. It also should be clearcoated in many light dusting coats as to not tarnish silver flake with the solvents in the clearcoat. It's finicky and a long process that gives you great results but you will never mimic real chrome. You applied it wrong is all.
