I keep hearing about chrome paint which looks great.  Given  the cost of
rechroming, does anyone have experience with chrome paint, and if so, what
brand?

bent when he was a youngster! Randall's dad's Old Blue !!

Possibly not the same powder as this was some time ago.  I have some items
that were done in "chrome" powder coat by the late Fred Thomas.  They do
look nice, but it's more of a plastic look.  I don't think anyone would ever
mistake them for real chrome.

Having it inside the gauge housing sure did brighten up the illumination,
though.  I can actually read my temp gauge at night!

Real Chrome Plating has become expensive in certain states because of
environmental laws.  But there are still places where you can still get
chrome plating done rather affordably.  One such place is Arizona.  We have
a couple of places in Tucson that do fantastic work at very good rates.

I have tried a few chrome look powder coats. If you are looking for show
quality chrome, they aren't going to work for you.  It comes out looking
more like polished aluminum or stainless steel.

Paint or powder coat?  I have used 'chrome' spray paint, OK but not the real
McCoy.  I have heard good things about a new powder coat material/process
that looks very close.   Now looking for something to take to my local guy
as a test before redoing my bumpers, chrome quotes from $500-800 each!
