  • Chrome In A Can

    I found this at Schuck's about a year ago. I know this is not the real thing, but the result is not all that bad on some items. Drying time in about 30 sec. Chuck

    Paints

    Its quite interesting the advances they have made with paints and such.
    It blew me away when I found a paint that would stick to Plastic like in our old little RV towing rig. The drawer edges were plastic and its still looking good.

    This new Sterling paint that we are using at the shop now also is something else. In looking at it, rolled and tipped, it shows no brush marks and I mean NO brush marks at all.

      Sterling Paint?

      Do you have a link that you can provide for the Sterling Paint, hopefully with a color chart?

      Thanks,

        Karl, That would be Marty's (Ole) department. I just use it.
        Like I said, I have never seen anything do that kind of a job.
