Saw this on a car in streetrodder and am very curious. Found some mention of it in other threads but was wondering if anyone has actually used it and their opinion. Sure looks impressive. Also if anyone knows any NY dealers .

wow Ive never seen a paint look like chrome before. That looks as good as the chrome powder-coats. I don't know if I would want it on my whole car tho. Maybe some kind of accents or something. Although It would be sick to do it like a candy. Spray the chrome as a base and top coat it with an iridescent blue or red.

I saw the Alsa shot at a demo a while back, pretty impressive. HOWEVER, it is MILES from the sheen of REAL chrome. It is getting there, sort of close, but it certainly isn't as shiny as real chrome.

Here is a sample of the prices for the paint, then you have to spend 11K for the equipment to apply it

go to the website,for alsa above,,, click on ordering online, then click on paint and supplies,, :eek:
I have their price list from 2005, and the prices have tripled since then,, these prices are from 2008

thanks, I'm a ways off from needing chrome, let us know how you make out with this. Ive also heard some negative on Alsa - but if this made Streetrodder I think it must be pretty darn good. I'm in western NY but maybe someone will be doing it closer by the time I'm ready.

I wouldn't put much into what a magazine says.
They probably get paid to do those articles.
Like the $98.00 paint job or whatever it was....
