we all want to see the chrome!
hhhmmm.not working as well as i planned.the guns im using were both buggered.but might have som sort of a result in a bout two hours.
well back to the drawing board.something went wrong majorly.what to do.maybe try the front and sides and see what happens or pull the blug and just paint it.will take a day to ponder it and see how i go.
has got some good possibility, looks not too far away from being spot on! keep persisting matey. (Rome wasn't built in a day)

sure you will work it out Calais, doesn't look too bad, may take a couple of goes to get it right. Does the chrome paint manufacturer recommend any certain weather conditions ?

pics cant tell the full story, but it doesnt look too bad. Will a recoat make it any better?
Looking good man, keep trying, it'll be a killer axe WHEN you nail it, not if. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but with a chrome coat, isn't it the way to go that you spray the whole piece in one hit so you don't have to blend later?
Bo its not a paint but actual silver between two clear coats.thats why it makes it difficult.its not like just going over the top with another coat.you really only get one shot.I think i can repair it.will see how I go.Its more the cost of the materials thats the issue.but i will get there!!!
plus i have a back up plan.just dont want to have to use it lol
a backup plan may have to be used then Calais ! good luck
