JENOLITE Chrome Spray Paint | Smooth Metallic Silver | Chrome Colour | Multi-Surface Paint For Metal, Wood, Plastic, Ceramic | Suitable For Interior & Exterior Use | 400ml

Wow, could not believe this would work, and guess what, IT DOES, I have chromed bits on my car, I found rear chrome wiper arm covers but could not find any for the front, so thought I would try this spray, so I removed front wiper arms from the car, rubbed them down with wire wool, sprayed a couple of coats of spray and hey presto it worked and looks lovely, would definitely recommend this, also the chrome pens are good,

I did a quick test for colour and finish. This has a more a sateen finish, which is what I want. It’s a really pretty silver - in the distant past I’ve had some silvers that made things appear ‘flat’, but not this one. I can’t report how well it adheres/ dries/lasts right now, since I’ve a number of spray-paint projects to do - and some materials still to get before starting. For reviews, this came out as one of the best all round. I’ve researched primers and found one that will do wood, metal and ceramic but need a separate one for plastics. Now to research sandpaper grades/types for all the different surfaces. Then there will be no stopping me apart from awaiting dry days which are warm enough, for best results. Keeping an eye open for a few large cardboard boxes to use as spray booths. Inside I’ll pop a piece of loose card for turning the item during spraying, without touching it. Must remember to wear disposable gloves!

Really like this. Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because there was a small amount of dripping which isn't uncommon with spray paints. Lovely coverage and very easy to use.

I took a chance on this paint after seeing photos with one review which actually looked shiny and gave me hope, while all the others for this and other products make it look unshiny and grey. The upper tube in both of my pictures is made of clear resin and has been sprayed with the paint. One picture compares this to a couple of tin whistles (made of nickel) while the other has an aluminium tube beside it. The paint is slightly shinier than the nickel and almost as shiny as the aluminium. Look carefully at the first picture and you'll see reflections of the holes of the nearer tin whistle, and of its label. (The blue and green spots on the tubes are reflections of Christmas lights, while the red and orange ones don't show up as they're less intense.) There's a plastic sheet underneath which was also sprayed in the process of coating the resin tube, but I inverted it for the second photo to show you that it's less shiny on the side contacting the plastic sheet, although that plastic isn't entirely transparent, so I haven't yet tested how it would work on better plastic than the liner of a corn flake packet. I'll do that experiment next time - I don't want to try it now as every usage of a spray paint risks clogging it up and losing the rest of the content, but I'll come back and edit this later once I have done it as it may be relevant to some applications, such as putting it on glass where it would be interesting to see how mirror-like it might be.What am I using this for? I make flutes out of resin (clear epoxy), sometimes by building them up in layers on a rotating bore mould. (The one shown here has an undulating width due to it being made out of five shorter sections combined together while each layer of resin added is gradually straightening it out - it's an experiment to test a specific diameter of bore without wasting a lot of silicone rubber on a full length bore mould.) I've been embedding silver foil in flute tubes before covering them with more resin with alcohol inks added to work in combination with the silver foil to create metallic colours, but there can be delamination issues caused by epoxy not bonding to plastic film, so I wanted to try a silver spray paint to see if that would simplify and speed up construction, but wasn't sure it would be shiny enough to work. I can now see that it clearly is: it's less shiny than silver foil (the coated plastic type; not tin foil), but it really does come out looking like metal, while coating it with a layer of clear resin will also make it robust.

Don't expect car chrome colour. Otherwise good

this is the best chrome finish I have used and is very robust after use

I have transformed my gold mirror frame to silver. Never done anything like this before really pleased with the result.Great product. Easy to use.

This did a good job of covering a rusty buckle after I had used white vinegar. Unfortunately it was a little too bright. I was after a more natural look. It did its job I just wish it wasn't so shiny.
