We will now be offering Chrome Painting services. This product is clear coated over and is a very durable finish, it is NOT A PLATING, but a NEW revolutionary paint! It offers 95-98% the reflectivity of true chrome and can be used on any surface you can paint such as metals, plastics, woods, foams etc.

From Cars, Trucks, Motorcycles, Guitars & Basses to full blown custom paint jobs, the possibilities are endless, you can even use it to touch up real chrome! Try it and see! This paint DOES NOT look like the simple aerosol chome spray paint you buy in the store. Just view the examples of this product on a car and helmet below, the results are truly amazing! Contact us if you would like to have your next project painted in CHROME!!
