Mo that looks great, so thats the actual spray on chrome product that everyone is talking about. It looks awesome in a picture, how did it turn out up close, would you do exterior trim with it?

I did my dash myself using the rattle can chrome paint (also did arm rest bases). I'll try to attach a before and after picture. I followed a tech article I found in Mopar Muscle mag. I have the article on my Picasa site if anyone is interested..

I painted my arm rests with the chrome paint and I really liked it. It didn't come out as glittery as the can cap and that was good. It's a more muted very light gray with a hint of steel blue. I don't recall which paint I used but I usually buy Krylon or Dupli-color.

Great Job on the Chrome paint. Acrylic Enamel Dupli Color? Off the hardware shelf?
The cap on the paint can looks grey. Did you use two different colors or just Chrome paint.
Any other tips greatly appreciated. I am thinking of doing my arm rest bases and sending back the new ones.
thanks for the pics
