Aclad Chrome paint

Set your compressor to about 12psi, shoot it from the bottle, no thinning. Do about 2-3 light coats, hold it up to a light to check for thin spots. Fill them in, and back it with either black ( deep chrome, but shows thin spots ) or with silver ( hides thin spots, not the "deep chrome" though.. )

I also suggest backing everything with white afterwards, just to put some extra protection over the chrome areas
