I would also be interested in what you put on the chrome to make the paint adhere really well. I was thinking of color matching mine and was just worried about it chipping off and looking like crap, I use my rig in the winter a lot and they use a bunch of sand on the highways here.

steps?!? im looking to do this to my bumpers on my Carbon Metallic 2003 yukon!
How did you do it?

 

[highrollin113]

thanks everyone, sorry i have taken so long to respond, ok here is what i did

i masked off everything, cause i left the bumper on(lucky i didnt end up regreting it)

i took fine grit sand paper and palm sander and sanded the chrome

cleaned it with de-waxer solvent and let it dry

sprayed with adhesion promoter, 3 coats

sprayed self etching primer, 3 coats, MOST IMPORTANT STEP

sprayed with sandable primer, 3 coats then sanded smooth

then i used dupli colour dark spiral grey paint to colour match

then clear, clear, clear

i should let you know i used same process on my rims and grill, the rims lasted an Alberta winter which is saying A LOT!!! and the grill has some small rock chips in it but im going to touch up with extra spray i have

***** follow all instructions on the products you use *****
