i keep hesitating to squeze the trigger all the way and then adding multiple coats to make sure i covered all of it then it goes to shit

i do mine in several thin coats..comes out nice

try clearing over the black base before spraying the chrome, it'll shine better

i did this with the aluminum

Can you or can't you spray a clear coat over the applied Alclad?

That deuce rear end looks very good with Alclad!

nope, kills the shine, turns it into regualar silver

Just spray it over a glossy black. Same process as a mirror

yeah, I don't care for it, I'm sticking to real plating except for stuff like exhaust, just to break up the undercarriage

same here...i'll still use polished aluminum and steel on motor parts and things.
