Experimenting With Chrome Restoration Alclad II, Green Stuff World, Mirror Molotow
Many vintage toys from the 70s and 80s feature chrome which was usually applied with a vacuum metallizer process. But years later, the chrome often wears, so what can we do to restore the chrome to its former glory. I experiment with several different chrome paints Molotow, Green Stuff World, Mirror (from Stuart Semple) and Alclad II. Comparisons are made between applying with brush and airbrush. A black base coat is also tried to see if it provides a deeper reflective chrome finish. It is known that many chrome paints are not very resistant to finger prints. A top coat is also tried to see if this can be fixed. The airbrush used is a cheap allinone from , vintagetoys, chrome, restoration Subscribe to the channel for regular new videos featuring vintage toys mainly from the classic decades of the 70s and 80s.
