WHAT IS SPRAY CHROME?
OVERVIEW
Spray chrome is a revolutionary automotive finishing technique that delivers the brilliance and luster of traditional chrome plating without the high costs and environmental concerns. At Designer Chrome, we're committed to providing you with the latest advancements in spray chrome technology to enhance your automotive customization projects.
HOW SPRAY CHROME IS USED
1. Preparation: Before applying spray chrome, the surface is prepped through a standard paint prepping process involving cleaning, sanding, and priming. The primer is wet sanded to 800 grit, ensuring a smooth canvas for the chrome application.
2. Spray Chrome Application: Our state-of-the-art spray chrome system uses a specialized gun to apply a layer of silver nitrate solution. This process creates a mirror-like, chrome finish on various surfaces, allowing you to achieve dazzling effects on automotive parts, including wheels, grilles, mirrors, and more.
3. Clear Coating: Following the chrome application, a clear coat is used to protect and enhance the finish. This step adds durability and an extra layer of gloss, ensuring that the shine remains vibrant and long-lasting.
ADVANTAGES OVER TRIPLE PLATE CHROME
Spray chrome offers several key advantages over traditional triple plated chrome:
1. Cost-Effectiveness: Spray chrome is a cost-efficient alternative that delivers the same stunning visual appeal without the high expenses associated with electroplating.
2. Eco-Friendly: Our spray chrome system is designed to minimize the environmental impact, using fewer chemicals and generating less waste compared to traditional plating methods.
3. Versatility: Spray chrome can be applied to a wide range of materials, including plastic, metal, fiberglass, and even carbon fiber. This versatility opens up endless creative possibilities for your automotive customization projects.
4. Efficiency: The spray chrome process is less labor-intensive, making it a faster and more efficient way to achieve chrome finishes.
