Hi !

 

Got somebody any experience with this paint marker or anything else like that ?

 

Some interior chrome parts are slightly worn by my Regal.

Thx

I`ve never heard of it and in my experience nothing restores damaged chrome other than a re-dip Not sure how they do plastic only metal the old school way with acid baths etc. It might be worth a try but I doubt if you will get the same shine chrome does. Its probably a highly reflective silver paint like this Valspar brand outdoor paint I have in Gold. I tried it and wet sanded, buffed, polished and clear coated on it on several different surfaces and I couldn't get it to shine like the cap indicates. Buyer beware.

 

Did you try any kind of cleaner or car polish/wax? that might restore the shine.

That would not be very useful, because the chrome is there pretty battered.

 

I'd be willing to bet it will look like silver paint on chrome. How big are the areas you need to fix?

 

I thought so. :confused:

I know its a very small area, but Im loving my Regal

and if there is an easy and good way to fix, that would be awesome ! :D

 

Finally the best would be to paint it fussy.
