Duplicolor Chrome !
just to drop a line (3 topic in 2 day, it's a record for me)
I just got a can of Duplicolor Metal Cast Chrome, and let me say, I was looking for a real chrome paint for ages now and finally found it ! this paint is totally awersome !! I'm working on my Enzo, and the Chrome part are very badly made by tamiya (shame on you Tamiya) so I just repaint the exaust and some engin's part, totally awersome ! 7$Can for a big spraycan is a shame ! it worth 3 and 4 time this price !

This is the one I saw... not sure if it's the same...
Duplicolor Chrome EDIT: Just saw that this is an enamel and a PiTA to use. I'll avoid it. I can't find the METALIZER paint in chrome that you're talking about... is it a laquer or enamel? |

So you sprayed the chrome duplicolor over Tamiya's dull chrome? That could mean the difference between spraying it on plain white plastic or previously metallic plastic.
Nonetheless, I'll give it a try if I go on a chrome spree. |

ok guys, here is 2 picture.. it's hard to see on picture, but it is way more shinny ! Pipes are made of Duplicolor Chrome
I'm not sure if it's better than Alcad (never used it) but this paint IS chrome and I love it. and It's 7$Can for 11oz (alcad is 9$ for 1oz i think) EDIT: THere is no blue in the color, it'S the reflection of my monitor and the yellowish is the light ![]()

I do think that AlcladII Chrome looks better, but I can't get it around here, so I'm going out tomorrow to get some of that Duplicolor. None the less, the both look awesome. Better than Revell's chrome
