BansheeKSA Posted February 9, 2015 Report Posted February 9, 2015 I would like to spray my swing-arms, stator case cover and some engine parts in chrome/candy paint like cylinder block etc, how do i start off and which paints/brands are the best to use that hold up very well? Any ideas and suggestions would be helpful! I have local stores that have spray cans of chrome/paint. Quote
vrx46 Posted February 9, 2015 Report Posted February 9, 2015 get the pieces powdercoated in bonded chrome. Looks better and holds up better. Quote
ECshee Posted February 9, 2015 Report Posted February 9, 2015 x2... powdercoat would be better than paint. might be more costly, but looks better and will hold up a whole hell of a lot longer Quote
BansheeKSA Posted February 9, 2015 Author Report Posted February 9, 2015 x2... powdercoat would be better than paint. might be more costly, but looks better and will hold up a whole hell of a lot longer Ok awesome, so whats the difference between buying several cans of lets say chrome spray paint cans for high temps and powder coat? Like what does powder coat consist of that the cans dont have? Quote
BansheeKSA Posted February 9, 2015 Author Report Posted February 9, 2015 Isnt there a specific brand that holds very well that i can spray on my plastic/metal parts? Quote
