Comparing Alclad and Duralumen Chrome Paints.

Spraying Alclad and Duralumen tonight and figured it would be a good chance to see them side by side. Both are fantastic chrome/metal paints with some very subtle differences. Hope some will find this informative! Thanks for stopping by!

I still don't understand why you have so few views... Your tests were great... I am tempted to get my old airbrush out and start spraying anything I can get my hands on!
However, do get a respirator or at least a facemask next time!

My car is getting new chrome after all. Wonder if it can be clear coated with a quality clear.

[@carstenhedegaardjensen230]

Cool comparison. The Alclad seems more similar to the chrome on the airbrush, whereas the Duralumen is more silvery.

for me duralumin is actually cheaper in Canada if you buy a certain amount because shipping cost but i like that stuff.
also less need for aqua gloss can lower the cost.

[@markie74656]

Where do you buy it from in Canada? I'm in Canada as well.

[@Sjsharkie777]

What was your preparation on the parts before spraying on the duralumin? I’m about to paint Mandolorian armor with that stuff

Nice tip about checking reflectivity coverage any for recoating alclad on larger pieces? I cant seem to fix just worn areads without having to sand and do thenprocess over again other than glossing the clad to protect it in the first place.

I would love to know if the duralumen is paint tape durable? I wanna buy the normal Duralumen Version and paint tape it without using a 2k before the paint tape.

I tried everything all I get is frosting. ?
What am I getting wrong ?

[@terryd2023]

4 oz doesn't sound like much... What's the coverage? In other words... Roughly, how many helmets would 4 oz cover? 1, 1.5, 2, more?

We should talk paints sometime Gordon, I used to paint grand prix bikes for a living. Theres a lot to comsider, undercoats, spray speed, laquers etc. All impacts on durability snd color. Lets get on a zoom with Tom sometime.!

Can you post a link on where to buy the Duralumen and how well does it hold up if you rub your finger on it?

[@gordontarpley]

It seems sturdy for handling so far. I added the link to buy in the video description.
