Default Faskolor chrome question.

When spraying faskolor chrome what color does it need to be backed with to come out chrome? I used it and backed it with white and it came out more of a silver color than chrome.

Same here, use black for a backing color.

From Parmas website

FASKROME (Satin) can be used as Silver (fast drying and thinner than FASPEARL Silver) or back with FASBLACK for a brilliant satin chrome finish. If using our New FASLUCENT Colors, this is best for backing it up. Gives a deep Metallic Candy effect. 2oz/60ml Bottle

Thank you both very much. I had looked at their site in the past but never had much luck. After your (Bfutura) reply I dug a little deeper and found some more information.

Faskrome isn't going to be a reflective chrome finish like Spazstix or Alclad chromes are. It's more of a silver with heavy glitter effect.
