Best Chrome
 

My new 2008 B4 and B44 shells needs chrome, and quite a lot of it. I use Faskolor on all my other shells. Do they do a chrome? if so, is this a good choice or do I need to use this Alcad stuff?

Dont think Faskolor do though everyone speaks very highly of the Fastrax / CML (fastFinnish) Chrome in a rattle can.

I used to swear by the alclad chrome, they do this in aerosol and jar. But I have just used some Spaz-Stix chrome, and it kicks ass.

This is also available in chrome and jar, but there are limited places sell it. I get mine from the land of the rising sun. ;)

I found the Fastrax stuff ok, but it left the finish a bit 'patchy', some places were nice shiny chrome and other places were just like a smooth silver.

Faskolor do a 'glitter chrome' but its NAFF!! with a big fat N.

Spaz is the best, but the aerosol one sticks the best, then alclad II then any other. Faskrome is more a pearl silver, great for sealing a light colour from a dark colour though.

Cheers. The other two colours are to be red and black, so the chrome can go on last. A can might be the easiest for those as it will be flood filled. Where can I get the Spaz chrome in a can? This is to be quite a simple design. The stickers are being specially made and will convey the design. :)

cause the chrome is backed with black, it can go on anytime realy.

Is FK40300 the Faskolor paint that is NAFF? They sell it at Apex Models.

yeah, thats the faskrome stuff

Its more like a silver glitter base than an actuall chrome.

This is where I get my Spaz from

Is it going to be a mclaren style shell?
If so, the Tamiya Semi gloss annodised alluminium works a treat.
