DIY Spray On Chrome

Sudzhis: Getting ready to paint the body in a couple weeks ! So it will be off the frame ! Anybody you can recommend ????????

 

I`m not living in USA! But in USA is lot of companies that do this work! All those commercial water chrome systems is portable and there is no problem to transport them! If u google "spray on chrome" u will find lot!

 

>What would be the base color that you would use on it ???

 

There is lot of variations, but in US almost all use polyurethane top coat! Color is whatever , but usually use white/black/gray

 

id paint the surround for your window black urethane bc/cc[prep as u were painting car]---then sand and buff it----then itll be ready for chrome ---- imo

 

20 - 26 cº

 

that sounds lika a plan

 

With buff can be some problems! I do this before, but it is not the best thing! There is possible to leave some buffing liquid on surface and it will make some rainbow on silver!

 

Nicamarvin do u saw my images with blue dishes? Maybe u have some idea why it is?

 

knowing that he will make sure its super clean----pre paint wipe etc etc

 

an thats why you use a good quality degreaser...

 

never happened to me

 

thats the Degreasing stage of this process.. just check my videos, I do it ALL the time,

I usually never cut and buff because I am a bad bad buffer and the time I did it I was not able to reproduce the Mirror like finish of fresh paint. so the silver never looked as bright....BUT it gave me a stainless steel look, so now I know how to reproduce this finish.

actually there are two ways to reproduce such a lesh shiny look. the first one is the one I just told you guys, the last one is to wet sand the final clear coat with a fine 2000 grit paper

 

i had this problem, for that reason i don't polish it...... with a fine 2000 grit paper fix this problem?

 

It is possible cromarte! Do it like this!

I polish only if i had a problem with paint- some dirt, hair or something stick to paint!

1. Sand paper 1000 and 2000
2. Polish with polishes
3. I use 3M polishes yellow and green!
4. Degreasing ang and Degreasing and Degreasing to wash off all the polishes. U can use only good professional painters Degreaser 10-15$ per 1L

With polish u can get even more glossy and shiny surface than from paint!

 

great, i will prove with polish 3M, i will do today a ring of rims's chevy. i will show you

 

Hi for all!

There was lot of experimnets in this weekend!

I made car wheels














Wheels without clear coat! I will do it tomorrow maybe

 

wow thanks for the info Sudzhis I always wondered on how to go about doing a car wheel rim without having the coating damage by careless people at the time of mounting the rim and the wheel.. so deflate the wheel and do the process while the rim is already mounted on the wheel... awesome

 

had you problems blue? it see good

 

Cromarte i made big changes! I made 2pa preasure in tanks! FUCK (sorry) it is mad thing to do it right with DIY formula!

 

but it worked all right? what changes did you do?

 

cromarte yes it worked Ok! check PM

 

i don't have mp of you

 

yesterday i had a problem, the silver was dark, the tin was old but still hydrophilized. could that be the problem?

 

Hi for all!
As I promise - some updates! Yesterday was mad Lot of BACARDI and headaches today

Before clear coat- better images









after clear coat! What i decided- in painting room all looks more darker and yellowed than i day light! There is so fckng big difference

 

PAINTING CAMERA











AND DAYLIGHT











and EXTRA Violet wheel Thats because in painting camera is different light and u feel that u need more and more clear coat

 

And REAL chrome V/S SILVER










1.p.. Yes it looks, ok, but nor for me! In real it is little worse!

TIPS.

1. Dont put wheels on horizontally position! This way u get lot of leak and lake on wheels and it damages it! Put vertically!

2. Take care with clear coat! (with tinted clear)! Spray camera is bad view and wrong light angles!

3. Unmount rubber from wheel! That can take some problems, but with silver it will be much easier, because there was lot of unwanted liquid on surface!

 

yesterday i had a problem, the silver was dark, the tin was old but still hydrophilized. could that be the problem?

 

What does it mean (hydrophilized.)? How u know that tin is Old?

 

what are the symptoms of a bad tin?
