Instructions / Assembly
As soon as you have achieved an even mirror surface on the piece…..
STOP IMMEDIATELY AND RINSE HEAVILY WITH THE DI/DISTILLED WATER, MAKING
SURE ALL CHEMICALS HAVE BEEN THOROUGHLY WASHED OFF. THIS IS
EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. ANY RESIDUAL CHEMICALS LEFT ON THE PIECE WILL
STAIN THE CHROME.
You can also simply pour the water from your sprayer over the piece to rinse it, but make sure
to thoroughly rinse it, and completely remove any residual chemicals, paying special attention
to any areas where liquid may have pooled up.
Dry the part by using an air blower such as the type used for computer dusting, or even a hair
dryer, with NO HEAT, and then let the object stand for one hour at ambient room temperature
(70-80 F).
Avoid letting moisture build up on the chrome during this step, as any moisture that builds up
on the chrome will not be clean DI/Distilled water, and that will tarnish the chrome.
TOP COATING: (All mixing rations are by volume and not by weight)
The ChromeFX top coat is mixed 4:1 with its hardener. 4 Parts top coat to one part hardener.
You may notice a slightly purplish tint to the top coat. This is normal, and will provide subtle
highlights over the chrome paint, just like real chrome does in the sunlight.
Mix your top coat as described above, and pour it into the tall black plastic jar labeled “TOP
COAT” provided in your kit.
Attach one of the Preval sprayers with the plastic tube on it, onto the black plastic bottle with
your top coat in it, by inserting the tube into the bottle, and screwing the sprayer on top. If this
tube has come off during shipping, simply re-attach to the PreVal sprayer, and proceed to
attach as described.
Apply 2 light medium coats onto the surface of the chrome, with 5-10 minutes between coats.
It will dry to the touch in approximately 2 hours (at ambient temperatures 75-80 F), and
FULLY cured in 24 hours.
Now the chroming process is complete!
***Colored Chromes*** This finish can be made any color you like, by applying our Killer
Cans of Candy Colors (sold separately) over the finished piece. Simply let the ChromeFX top
coat cure for 24 hours, and then lightly scuff the ChromeFX top coat, to create a good surface
for adhesion, and then apply our Killer Cans of Candy color. Use nice even passes, as
candies are translucent, and can look blotchy if not applied evenly. More coats results in a
darker color.
