Anyone here know how to blacken chrome temporarily?
Hi guys... The reason why I am asking is that I really like the look of blacked-out chrome on a car, and I am thinking about doing it on my 71 Lincoln Coupe. I would like to find something to darken the chrome temporarily so that I can take some digital pics of the vehicle to see if I like the look. I have done some MS Paint renderings, but its not the same as seeing it on a car up close and real. Would some kinda water-based paint work? Would it wash off with a good handwashing? I was thinking off possibly trying black tempura paint, you know the kind that kids use for arts and crafts? I considered black shoepolish, but I have put that on windshields and it can be a bear to get rid of. Any thoughts from ones wiser than me? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
