    Spray Can Chrome Showdown Revell Chrom Spray Rustoleum Mirror Finish Bright Coat Duplicolor Chrome Krylon Brilliant Aluminum IronLak Chrome Scale Model Review How To Paint Plastic Metallic Styrene 39628
    Give your model the perfect finishing touch with Revell Chrome Spray. Easy-to-apply Chrome Spray lets you enhance all your model's chrome parts with a high-quality sheen - for an even more realistic and detailed look. Revell Chrome Spray is a must for advanced model building hobbyists who set high standards for their finished models. The chrome finish effects are truly impressive.
    Aerosol paint (commonly spray paint) is paint that comes in a sealed, pressurized container and is released in an aerosol spray when a valve button is depressed. Aerosol painting is one form of spray painting; it leaves a smooth, even coat, unlike many traditional rolled and brushed paints. Standard-sized cans are lightweight, portable, inexpensive, and easy to store. Aerosol primer can be applied directly to bare metal and many plastics.
    Graffiti artists are known to use spray paint because the medium is quick, permanent, and portable. The origin of the product, however, dates back to 1949, when it was designed for the very practical purpose of applying aluminum paint coatings to radiators.
    Chrome plating (less commonly chromium plating) is a technique of electroplating a thin layer of chromium onto a metal object. A chrome plated part is called chrome, or is said to have been chromed. The chromium layer can be decorative, provide corrosion resistance, facilitate cleaning, or increase surface hardness. Sometimes, a less expensive substitute for chrome such as nickel may be used for aesthetic purposes.
    Chromium compounds used in electroplating are toxic. In most countries, their disposal is tightly regulated. Some fume suppressants used to control the emission of airborne chromium from plating baths are also toxic, making disposal even more difficult.

    Thank you for that video Chris. It's helpful in more than one way, as some of us don't necessarilly look for a perfect chrome; sometimes you want a duller or aged chrome depending on the project, like a derelict or patina'd car. I was a bit bummed at first seeing this wednesday's video wasn't a model kit, but turns out I'm really grateful for that video!

    FANTASTIC test, Chris! Love how you did everything the same, and with vs without primer. One caution to viewers: I've read MANY reports that ANY kind of clear, even Future, over the Revell Chrom SEVERELY dulls the finish. So Chris, a sweet addendum test would be for you to try a few clears & Future over some spoons sprayed with the Revell.

    Brilliant! - Thank you so much. Apart from the model making I have been restoring some vintage cycle, battery and dynamo lamps. The 'vacuumed' chrome coating on the plastic bulb reflectors have often peeled off (or just plain 'evaporated'?) leaving bare non-reflective plastic and had got me stumped. Sending them away for re-vacuum chrome plating was going to be Extortionate $$$$$ The Revell chrome paint - Brilliant. The reflectors will look about as near to 'factory' as possible. Again, thank you so much.

    Good to know what works best on plastic and what doesn't. I'm currently using Rust-oleum bright coat which works good for the builds I do. As with all paints and finishes, it boils down to what effects you're looking for and what you're willing to pay for it. I just do my kits for fun so I try to stay within a price range for the paints. It also pays to shop around to see where to get the best deals.

I just wish there was a way to have real chrome plating done similar to what Chrometech USA used to do. No spray chrome looks as good as real plating.

    The paint manufacturers consider "chrome" to be a color.
    Notice they do not say "polished chrome".
    That is because "chrome" is just a type of "silver" color.
    IMO, none of them look like chrome except for Revell which comes very close.

    Chris, that was fun! I sometimes wonder if you're sniffing the pines out there in the woods -- whatever gets you by.
    Wonderful video -- you did a great job. The only thing I would add is that it you're going to "chrome" one bumper it will look better if you paint all the chrome trim at the same time. It may not look exactly like plating but it may have a passable scale chrome finish, and that will work better if it's all the same.
    Now I'm going to have to search for my penny jar to buy some Revell spray chrome.

You do make it a point to show the materials you use and I appreciate that, though sometimes I feel like I miss something in the "final Assembly" portion of the videos - maybe a little more in-depth there?

    I'd be very interested in seeing how the top 3 do after applying primer, sanding with 600/1000/1500/maybe 2000-grit paper to make it pretty smooth, and then applying gloss black over the primer to see what the results are, especially with the Interlak, because I suspect that one has a lot of promise.
