AK-Interactive Interactive Super Chrome (amz-AK-AK9198)

I rarely review stuff because I don't really care. I had to review this because this paint is amazing. I had a yellow runner full of Gundam parts and I sprayed two coats of the chrome paint. It looks like it came like that from the factory. A perfect mirror finish. I used an airbrush roughly 25-30psi and I would spray almost full paint and like 50% on the air portion of the dual action trigger. Make sure when you spray, it looks like chrome, you don't wanna go too light otherwise it will just look like silver paint. So yeah, go heavier than you think, plenty of paint on the part and then let it dry. Most parts were fine with one coat but I did two just because. Can't speak on durability yet but after one coat it seemed fine, time will tell. I touched one sample piece just to see if it would peel off, and it did not. $30 is what I paid and I used maybe 1/5 of the bottle to do an entire Gundam runner worth of parts roughly 40 individual small parts, comparing to other normal paints I've used for airbushing, I'd say this is great value for money. This is alcohol based I believe and dries super fast, second coat on the first part, right after my last piece was done without any issues. If I could give more than 5 starts I would. Definitely gonna pick this up again for any chrome painting needs.

Nice quality chrome for small projects. Goes on easy. With smooth application it looks good.

Fast shipping

this if for a anybody who's still has a tots h2 scalpel prop. i had a tots (trick or treat studios) polyurethane foam halloween 2 scalpel prop for awhile and i wanted to repaint it to make look more realistic like literally make it look like a real metal surgical scalpel. to achieve that i needed silver or metallic silver paint. the metallic silver worked but i gave the other silver paints a test and i didn't like it cuz it turns out that any craft paint bottle labeled as "sterling silver", "silver sterling","brushed metal"(brushed silver) ect are all the same shade just lighter or darker by half a inch to one inch. so i started looking for chrome craft paint or just chrome paint in general. at first i didn't think that was a thing cuz i only could find it the form of paint pens, paint markers and spray paint. until i found this one "ak interactive super chrome". the weird thing it was more of a liquid rather then normal paint but that's how it is and u can air or hand brush it. it's suppose to give you a shiny mirror chrome effect. to achieve that first you use their water based black primer & microfiller or acrylic black primer then airbrush it on. then do the same with the super chrome two or three coats max for the actual paint. (to thin the acrylic black primer uses their thinner) to hand paint it do the same thing just mines the airbrush. (don't thin the acrylic but it's your choice) your first chrome coat won't look good it'll take up to three or four coats max. i wasn't going for a "mirror" look i was going for a "actual metal" look. so i did three to three in a half coats max and it worked turned out great for me. if u r going for the mirror look but have no airbrush then you'll need to hand paint (just guessing) but maybe 5-7 coats. here's what i did after hand painting my coats on and here's what it looks like in different lightings. i personally like it and recommend this paint.

Best chrome out there.

Great coverage, looks great painted as well.

I tried close to 20 "chrome" paints from Amazon, and this is the only one that comes close to true mirror finish. Your results will obviously depend on how smooth your surface is, but with a proper base this can get a silver finish in which you can almost see your own reflection. It works well both airbrushed (better results with a thick coat, seems to form a film layer that way) and applied with brush.

You cant touch this chrome paint. And you can not clear coat it. If you plan on handling the object you are painting this will not work for you. Chrome paint is a rabbit hole. I am currently playing with Mirror chrome and Ultralumen chrome (neither are available on Amazon). My goal is to chrome an object and then clear coat it so I can touch it. I'm getting close, but not there yet. Mirror says you can touch it with no clear coat needed. I have had mixed results with the mirror but I am not done experimenting with it yet. I cant get my 2k clear on Ultralumen without wrecking the chrome, but the instructions are intricate and I have not figured it out yet. EZ-chrome looks good, have not tried it yet. All $30 Amazon chrome paints failed me like this AK. The more expensive paint seems like the way to go. A classic case of you get what you pay for I guess.

That's just the most metallic paint Ive ever seen.

Juste se que j'avait besoin

il faut maitre une sacré dose mais sa fonctionne très bien (sur du noir brillant)

Superlativa vernice per cromatura. Ottimo effetto. Pronta all’uso per aerografo Si consiglia per diluizione e pulizia aerografo usare il thinner-cleaner della AK

Best chrome but airbrush only
