Re: Chrome paint???

Ya I do not understand either. You want a chrome paint to use on your go kart? Why do you not want to use spray paint?

Re: Chrome paint???

I'm wondering if you know that chromium is an element, and it must be applied by a PLATING process, not bhy shaking up and aiming a spray can.

Sherwin-Williams has a product called SilverBrite.

It comes in a one gallon can and will give you the finish you're looking for. It will however, run you a pretty penny.
