Painting chrome

[97firehawk]

I mean sand blast them when you go to lowes or the paint store they have a fine sand a medium sand and a coarse sand the fine sand will not leave heavy piting. Sand paper dosent work well.

what prep work do you use for that?

[Gregs_gsxr]

Wouldn't know but Im sure they explain what to do exactly on the product, could check it out

when im ready to take the bumper off ill wash it down good, and check it out, i have the worst luck on sparying metals, and chrome. it alsways turns out crappy. so i dont want to spend like 14 bucks on a can and then have it look poopy. but its definitely the best option so far
