Toys 4 U 7777 Alclad Chrome, ALC107, 30 ml, New! /Item# G4W8B-48Q31305

I was trying to replicate my 70 Dodge Charger from when I was in high school. I could never find a kit that was a perfect match. Revell had a 1969 Charger that was right from the A-pillar back. I found a resin 70 Charger that had the right front clip, but the doors were wrong. I kit-bashed the resin front clip to the 69 rear. I needed to chrome the resin front bumper and wasn’t looking forward to the expense. I had heard of this Alclad paint and gave it a try. I painted the bumper gloss black and polished it for a good base. I applied the Alclad with my airbrush. I didn’t need to thin it. It laid nicely. I gave it 3 coats. A close look will tell you it’s not plated, but it looks great on the shelf and feels just like my Charger!

Great product

Best price have found on this item, great shine when used with high gloss black underneath. The seller offers fair price for both lacquers, (use airbrush for best effext) and quick shipping.

In my opion Alclad is by far the best airbrush paint to use. I have been using it for several years now.

I’ve tried to get this to work many times but I’m just not able to get the chrome to lay down nicely. I know it’s really just user error but don’t buy this thinking it’s going to be as simple as just spraying. Might need to practice to achieve good results

I find that I blow through the small bottle this comes in, but the final product looks so nice I have already bought 3 more bottles for my project.

Short of actually doing chrome, you won’t find a better chrome paint. (Put gloss black under it)

I wanted to use this to do some touch-up work on a set of PVD chrome rims that came on my F-150. I'd done a lot of research that said this stuff was the best chrome paint out there. I will admit that it looks amazing in the bottle, and brushed onto the proper surface it looks great. Unfortunately for me, it was far too runny to use on my rims. I couldn't get it to apply like I wanted and it didn't 'coat' the surface... it just ran off. I'm sure if I had the equipment and the skill to airbrush it on instead of brushing it with an art brush that I would've got a better result. At least I have it in my toolkit if I need some plastic or some other small part to have a chrome finish.
