Bling bling

Chrome - Universally synonymous with pimpin'. However the chrome plating process is quite old fashioned and rather messy. Today its a dying trade. You'd have to live in a very industrial city to have access to proper chroming facilities. So what do you do when you live in a sleepy tourist town? You fake it!


I went to Canadian Tire and bought some "Dupli-Color Chrome" paint and some grey primer.







I thoroughly degreased the components I was spraying with some Gunk Engine Degreaser. Then washed it with warm soapy water and let it dry. Once it was properly dried I sprayed it with the primer.



Then sprayed it with the instant chrome paint.










... et voila CHROME!!!
