Picked these up from the paintshop today...
The pics don't really do it justice. It's near impossible do see it isn't real chrome (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool_shades.gif) Attached image(s) |

QUOTE(markd@mac.com @ Nov 9 2004, 09:13 PM) I still don't understand if this is a proprietary technology, or a publicly available technology. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Is it baked or just sprayed? What I'm getting at, is it something Brandon could do to my car? It is a special 2 stage paint. First a base coat, then a clear/top coat which chemically reacts with the base coat and creates the chrome look. It's not as easy to apply as regular paint/clear coat though. The amount of clearcoat affects how good the chrome will be as well as the tint of the chrome. My friend is a professional painter for over 25 years and it took him quite a while before he got the results he wanted |
