Duplicolor chrome
The duplicolor instant chrome.
Anyone used this before? Can I spray this highly toxic paint on plastic model kit? What kind of primer do I have to use? Do I have to spray a gloss black before the chrome? Thanks for reading! Please help! Thanks.

I never used duplicolor chrome before.As far as primer goes,always use duplicolor primer.Without it the paint will melt a perfectly good(as well as not as good)models.

You need a good lacquer primer to protect the plastic from the chrome. I've only tried spraying over lacquer primer, I get a nice chrome silver like Lownslow, but not TRUE chrome. I haven't tested it over gloss black, maybe you can test it for us and report the results?
If you want a really good chrome and have an Airbrush, get Alclad II Chrome, which will give you a chrome finish when sprayed over glossy black enamel surface.
