Chrome Paint.. Yeah

Recommended Posts

Ok so I’m gonna experiment with some “mirror finish” chrome paint on the rim of some splits. I can’t polish them due to the amount of filler I’ve put on them. 

I’m reading about lot of people having bad experiences with lacquering this stuff, and without lacquer it getting dull and tarnished after any length of time in an exterior application. My question is would a sealant like poorboys provide some kind of temporary seal against this degradation in the same way it would protect a polished rim? Any thoughts or insights appreciated, if no one comes up for it I’ll put my findings up with pics! Cheers.

just in case anyone is interested I binned the idea of painting a mirror finish and have gone down the traditional wet sanding polish route with great results. 

Always looks great when freshly done. It's the upkeep of the shine that I find too tedious for my liking.
