Yeah bcuz the chrome was all faded and stained.. Could polish it back to shine... IMO this will look 10 times better... Atleast for the time being...

Just need to find a can of this and your golden
-------------------- Hi, my name is Jimmy Herrera aka 91Trunkster (510)375-1589 and I got snitched out by my friend or friends. Ain't that a bitch, some one or some people would rat out my fake account here to keep their own secret fake account? If you all forgot, I'm an old ass 30 something year old "man" that likes to make internet friends with boys fresh out of highschool. I like to post "bruh" a lot just like the annoying immature and ghetto CAFords kids do. I like to talk shit about this website, make it look bad, all the while trying to make and save money off of other members here. Some may call me a selfish immature bitch. Deep down I know they are correct, it's not like I have anything else going on in my life or anything but negativity to offer this community. This is a free site. Suckers spend good time and money to keep this website going. They're suckers for doing so, so fuck them, I'm going to take them for all they got. It's all about me in this world.
Who is the next troll or just plain annoying post whore to get the boot???

no sanding!!!!! anytime you want paint to have something to grab onto!! you always need to scuff/sand the piss out of anything you spray/paint!! i would not be surprised of that shit peals off from wind!! chrome is the hardest thing to get paint to stick to!!! you have been better off takin the tires off and getting them blasted and powder coated that way lools better and wont peal from one lil rock chip im the road!!

You are right in most cases... But have you ever heard of Duplicolor Shadow?? Its supposed to give chrome a "black Chrome" and in the instructions it says "DO NOT SAND surface unless you want a "ruff looking surface in your final outcome"... Im starting to think I should have just painted them.. lol

Soooo... I didnt like the way the "shadow" looked on my wheels... It gave them a green tint... So heres what I did, I scuffed up that paint so that the black will.have something to stick to.. ,, 3 coats of black, 3 coats of clear... Heres the outcome
