I sell autobody supplies for a living. I sell the products that mimic chrome, both house of kolor and ALsa . Thenprocess is labor intensive , but you can get good results. I did my sons bumpers on his duster and the bumpers on clintons dart. Basically you paint the bumpers black first, then they need to be sanded and polished. The flatter and shinier they look,mthenbetter the chrome look you will get. You apply one, maybe two coats of the chrome. Now you have to let it flash at least 10 to 12 hours. the clear part is important and where most people screw up the chrome finish.since you put the chrome over a smooth polished black, when you clear it it wants to "float" off the black and now it gets fuzzy and not a distinct chrome look. ALsa has a specific clear r now that dries very fast, put one coat of that, then two coats of any urethane clear over that. The clear part is where you have to know what your doing. If you want to talk about the process, call me at work 914 937 7400 , Tony
