Question about grill…..

[Hubert Atkinson]

So the chrome is coming off the plastic…  can you get these things rechromed?

In Texas I don’t know. In northern Ca. there is a place that does plastic. It is not a true chrome but a process where a chrome like finish is applied to the surface of almost any items. I think the name of the process is Spectra Chrome. Process is used on some of the monster trucks and some show cars. 

  The MP Lafer cars have a plastic grill shell that is chromed .  It will peal off of the grill. Mine is pealing and Way down the road it will have to be done over.

I believe Jay Leno had a U Tube video on spray on chrome . I sent away for chrome tape to do a repair you cant tell which area I repaired

Greg, the name of the stuff that you bought and where you got it from would be most helpful.  Is it metal tape or vinyl/plastic?  How do you apply to shaped (other than flat) objects. 

Also, I would appreciate it if you could post some pictures of what you used it on so successfully.
