[QUOTE="JonW, post: 205414, member: 20253"] Well, so far I've used three different kinds of chrome paint: ACE hardware chrome Krylon chome Molotow chrome pen The ACE paint looks great, very shiny. Krylon is crap, basically silver. The Molotow pen is great, but it NEVER dries.. I've also tried three different clear coats: Krylon Crystal Clear Revlon clear nail polish (enamel) Alclad clear lacquer All three of them turned the chrome paint dull at best and into battleship gray at worst. No matter what combination of paint and clear I used, the results were all the same. Soooooo... how do you clear over chrome paint? Any ideas that work would be welcome. I don't have an airbrush, so it would have to be brush or rattle can. [/QUOTE]
