Alclad II Chrome Paint...

[E-MaxxDestroyer]

I just got a bottle of the stuff and am wondering whats the best way to use it. How many coats? Thick or thin coats? Thinned out or not? Is Pactra Outlaw Black a good paint to back it with?

Thanks,
Destroyer

The chrome comes really thin to begin with. Don't add any thinner to it. You'll need to turn your compressor down to about 12-15 psi to spray this stuff. Otherwise, it will get all over everything other than the body you are trying to paint. :)

I just did a couple thin coats untill it had good, even coverage. I was using a black shirt ( black paper works, hold something dark up behind the body ) to find the thin spots, then back it with a water based silver, or water based black.

Do not thin the paint. It needs no thinning..
