chrome paint
I have use the alsa chrome paint and it was a mess. Cost $200 for a small bottle that would do 2 motorcycle wheels. I had a pro paint shop do it with thier booth and just as the directions said. The wheels were prep right and then sprayed. It went on with a dull shine. But did have a little shine to it. The You have to clear coat or it will come off. No way around it. After the clear it was dull. I have had better shine with cheap chrome in a can. I spent the next day cleaning it off and shining the wheels back up to stock. This was a company project so I was not out of the $$ only labor. I gave the results to my local body suppy shop and he said he has others with the same results, bad. O and I did call alsa and the reply was the pro painters did not know what they were doing. I have used some other paints from alsa with great results but not mirrochrome.
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
