Default DupliColor Shadow Chrome

It gets mixed reviews but I thought I'd give it a try and I really like the results. What do you think?

I love it. I really like the blackened chromework on UK spec XJRs, (and US XJR 100)...... Tell us more..... Is it just spray paint type application? Or some kind of dip or coating process?

Did you rough up th chrome to prep it?

It comes as a 2 can kit. Black tint and clear topcoat. Very easy to use. You just have to be very careful to get thin even coats of the black.

That looks good, and, I've definitely thought about using it on my chrome since first hearing about it a few years ago. I just wonder about its durability.

Looks like you'll be my Guinea Pig
