    I haven't tried that one in particular, but I have done some chrome in the liquid form and powder, which has worked out pretty well. Stuff is pricey though. And involves three different coats with clear being the final one.

      That looks awesome. What kind and where from? If I get it right you put the chrome on let dry then cleared with powder? What clear?

        the one in liquid form , is it the one you spray a black basethen the chrome like and topit off with a candy or a clear.
        how durable is it ? the ones i have seen are real nice looking but they peel off easy

          The metalization process needs a vaccum chamber to put the chrome foil on over the powder base......lol the cost of even a small vaccum chamber is high.
          We did see some examples of this process at the convention in Indy and it is very close to chrome but also shows any dust/defect that gets under the foil
