Candy Over Chrome 

Holy crap, that chrome really pops, even more so with the candy on top. Lovely job!

Looks awesome....great work,love the colour

Outstanding Video. Thanks from Atlanta

Always looking forward to your videos. I remember the 1st time seeing one was during a spray painting theory class. Our skills facilitator played us a clip to illustrate techniques etc. I've been subscribed ever since

That looks top notch gunman. Great vid.

I really like this. Thank you for sharing your experience.

Awesome. Thank you for taking your time and making this video.

That looks incredible, you can use any of my cars as a "test panel" any day!

I bought my GTI Pro (tekna in US) about 6 months because of this man and I've loved it ever since. Thanks Gunman!!

Looks really good. I need some of this DNA paint for black chrome bumpers on my Chevelle.

Beautiful, it looks like gold! You can do wonders with coatings my friend!!

Great video man! That looks pretty cool.

man dude! ! this is so beautiful !!!

Very cool!! When I get set up I plan on using some of your techniques on painting 1/25 scale models. Getting tired of just standard colors!

Love your work, alot of help.

Looks awesome,,,wow.

that looks really cool

this looks amazing

hey gunman we used to mix our candy with extra binder to make it more transparent then layer it more times to get it more even. then less depends on how perfect you spray it just layer it more. The old days this product was lacquer. and we used more thinner now we use binder or base clear some guys call it.

The best candy painting in youtube!

Nicely done. although you make it look easy, that is a really cool end product.Thanks for sharing peace brother.

Like it you are a good chrome painter.

Dam, you have helped me alot with ur videos, keep up the great work !!

Omg chrome paint this is the first time I've seen that done always a shiny Grey

WILL try this on my motorcycle tank.

Good job

Hi gunny another awesome video take care

saw a complete truck done in blue candy over chrome yesterday in my city

You're my hero for now.

All the painting directions iv read say spray a strip then your next strip spray half over the first strip. You went more like 2/3 overlap an looks way better even from a video then anything iv tried. Plus your booth an air flow leaving the booth.. nice vid.

Ur awesome dude! Keep up with your videos and I would like to see something with black Base and a purple effekt shaded from front ato back ,frome bottom and up .Datsun 240z😉 i would prefer is the object cause that's my upper coming project. Best regards from Sweden 👊

The thought occurred to me later, about the overspray from the chrome product. Because it's a downdraft booth the air is coming down over the panel. So if you always start spraying from the bottom of the panel up to the top, then you increase the chance of overspray on everything except the top of the panel. In a Cross draft booth, you will get overspray on the hood of a vehicle from the panels furthest from the exhaust, and that's why the vehicle would be placed with the hood closest to the exhaust so that painters could really wet out the hood and melt in the overspray. This might alleviate some of the problem...but I've never sprayed chrome so this is only a suggestion.

Hi I am wondering how much of the chrome paint do you think you would need to do 2 bumpers on a VC Val mate . I am looking at the kits now but not sure now much to get

Nice!

Love this guy to paint my triumph motorcycle

Sweet! And such a great look. Gunny, is it possible to get this look using only base coats rather than 2 part paints? Our gang builds competitive aerobatic models and weight is always a problem. By the way, in May the model aviation world championships are in Perth. Thanks again! Bob from Texas

awesome, could you do a sample chrome, crystal and candy?

This is awesome! Does this only work with this DNA paint? Usually, painting over chrome with candy or even clear for that matter results in instant fog and killing the chrome effect entirely. Also, is this a durable finish? Isn't the clear going to delaminate without sanding before it? 🤔 I'm assuming that's a 2k clear.

I am a model car builder. You have given me some ideas for painting a model. I love the color. I am sure using the same product you used is too expensive but maybe I can use others to achieve the same results. I'll have to see. By the way I have used two automotive paint brands and have had great results. I even have used fingernail polish with great success. My saying is if it can go through my airbrush then I will give it a try. I love blues and purples so I bet they would look great over chrome too. Thanks for the video.

I'm looking into painting a Holden gemini in this colour by DNA next week. How many litres of paint and gloss do I need roughly?

Respekt Bravo 😍❤😱👍✌

Awsome

After putting the virtual Chrome down I heard you're supposed to wait about 10-15 minutes and take a rag and wipe the dust off and the chrome comes to a mirror finish ? did you try that?

Hi, Is this type of special coating given to it with nickel chrome or is it a normal coating and what is the material that was sprayed after painting the black color before spraying the silver color?

Fuckin' awesome job, brilliant!

Wow!!! After you sprayed the clear, how much time did you wait to spray the silver ???

Hi gunman which brand did you recommend me for chrome mirror & chrome gold

Man..I wish i could see this in the sun

hey gunman cool vid.one thing I noticed is that ur chrome finish didn't. have that mirror look it looked blurred why is that?

What mini spray gun model was used in this second half of the video?

You should wet sand and either flow coat or buff and see if the shine/reflection is better ❤

nice

Can it be done using spray can paint? I'm planning to do a candy over chrome too in a steel bike tia.!

Could you use that exact system on motorcycle plastic fairings???

Mistakes? They ain't showing up on camera. That's a phenomenal paint job.

Just wondering would this chrome work with mutant crystal?

Is the devilbiss GTI the same as the Tekna Pro in the USA ???

does tht diamond clear have a adhesion enabler builtinto it?

is chrome the go to basecoat for any candy colors?

Do they sell the DNA chrome in the states? And if so how does it compare to Alsa Corp?

Subtitulos en español. Gracias!! Desde Rep. Argentina saludos.

have you tried the eastwood aresol gun cleaner

Nice

bom dia ,a tinta base prata que voce usa é a cromada?

tnx man..

How to done by spray chrome on single nozle gun .. How's to possible .??

What grit sandpaper are you prepping with?

Is the chrome heat resistant at all?

what is virtual primer great video as always

hey gunman I see your storage of quality guns is getting pretty big why don't you share one of them with a fellow preper that's getting ready to make that jump to a part time painter at my shop, I'm using a cheap fx3000 for my finishing jobs while my fellow co workers use there satas and iwatas kinda sucks gunman!

Sir, we can polish chrome paint ?

You will have better results with V-chrome if you do X-patterns in the field as a step of each coat.

i want this paint

Got any advice for painting stainless

It can be done on exhaust tips? using high temperature primer?? Looks so fkng great.

Who makes the virtual chrome paint?

Hi i have a couple of questions. I own " HYDROGRAPHIC WORKX " and was last week introduced to hydrochrome, after buying a hydrographic printer of a dude that had gone from doing hydrographics to hydrochrome.So seeing how easy it looked straight away knew i was going to expand my business,And im about to order a full set up, whilst i was at this dudes workshop i asked him a few questions about the hydrochrome .However he was like " IM NOT TELLING YOU TO MUCH " even though id travelled for over 2hrs to get the printer,so there would be no chance of me taking his customers..On seeing the items he had just chromed i thought sraight away being a car painter for 28yrs thought.The prepping process has to be the same as sparaying a car say,where as you would take the shine off the original paint then 2k filler prime the car then flat the 2k primer smooth then apply the colour and then clear coat. However is this the same with all materials as i watched a toilet being hydrochromed,so would i be right in saying there is a product on the market that keys pottery,like plastic primer as the product i use is clear and i can paint straight over the top of it if i wished to.i never do though i always apply 2k fillerprimer on any paint work i do.The hydrochrome system im about to buy is from these guys customcreationpaints.co.uk/ has anyone used the product there selling and is it top quality,if not can someone point me in the right direction as to where i can buy the set up from.. i also buy accident damaged cars and repair them to keep me busy when im quiet on the hydrographics,so know that im going to be itching to get a car in my paint booth within a couple of weeks to hydrochrome it ,then paint a candy colour clear coat over the top or illusion paint haha. Thanks for taking the time to read my post and any help as to what to watch out for and best way to achieve the best results

how I buy chrome paint in india or tell me indian brand name for great chrome job
