~ Can't let u boys have all the fun..
Finished my recipe for a true metallic plating on the 1983 SNAKE. These 2 pieces were just samples but it was two thumbs up from the chemist. The front section I could have prepped much better but it turned out pretty good anyways & was good to see it didn't have to be perfect to work. The accessory is flawless though. In your hand the pieces feel just like metal and sounds like metal too if you drop them or tap them against something. It wasn't easy or cheap coming up with something to attract the nickel but the plate holds perfect and looks perfect with properly prepped pieces. I only have enough $ecret formula to make around 5 complete but as soon as I buy up a couple more SNAKES its off to the workshop and then the plater for these fellas..

Will the process degrade the plastic over time? I have experimented with my secret process of "chroming" plastic. If it takes it looks good but if it has one little blemish you gotta start all over again.
