Oddly the chrome is something I found in the Auto department for a chrom touch up spray paint...it covers oddly and clumps up in places...the other drawback is its tacky as hell...I did a HISS like a month back now and it still has some tackiness to the paint in places.
Also I've done some clear coat testing but for some reason the clear coat turns the silver a crappy grey color. |

Wow, looks great! Very creative, I dig it.
Did you prime the Rhino 1st before the chrome? I only ask because I have some old model kits I've been working on and when I didn't wash the hell out of them in soap and water, dry them completely...then hit em with a scuff pad and RustOlium black automotive primer--I ended up with the tackiness issue. It would eventually dry, then crack off. So I had to re-do the whole thing with the steps above. |
