How to paint over Chrome, black out your ride

- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- In this video I paint all my chrome bits. Most new cars come with a heap of chrome parts like grill, mirror covers ect.
The basic process is to sand, prime and paint.
You can use a spray gun or a spray can to do the job.
If using 2k paint please do it with a good spray mask and in a well ventilated area with dust extraction.
Here is a video using the 2K clear in a can.

Door handles wheels and side steps are done. Check it out here. ruclips.net/video/bAM16Fi_5GY/видео.html
I remember back in early 2000’s people want it chrome everything mirrors,grille,bumper,rims etc etc now it’s the opposite blacked out everything we going backwards...
Question if I'm going with a 2k satin black finish should I still use a satin clear coat?
Would you what would you estimate the cost to have this done at an auto body shop for a 2019 Honda Pilot. Thank you and thank you for the video
Can we get an updated to see how it held up? Looks good!
Very nice. Chrome looks great on vehicles from the 1950s, but not on modern vehicles.
I don't think so...I hate blacked out cars....they aren't classy
@@lenjames well new, modern cars aren't meant to be classy....yet. Even newer Corvettes looks very dated with chrome wheels IMO.
NATSCHKE FAMILY ADVENTURES fr I’m trynna get the chrome trim off my 2012 Camry it looks kinda weird
I hate blacked out cars too, they look like base models, blacked out sport cars look nice tho
@@lenjames Well most cars are kind of sporty, so I don't think chrome works. Just my opinion. It's obviously nice to many or car companies wouldn't still be making it, but you still see a ton off chrome deletes via vinyl, paint, plastidip etc. and so many that have the chrome wish they didn't. I think there can be a balance on certain cars I suppose.
This is absolutely THE best blackout job I've seen done. Thanks so much for sharing!!
Instantly made it look 5 years newer, well done mate!
Really transformed the look of the truck, made it look much nicer.
Wow, someone who does videos about car things, AND knows how to do an underview at the end. Appreciated. Also, the existence of a 2-part clear coat in a spray can isn't something I would have ever even thought to look up.
Dave took the time to break down each step and describe the process, product used, and why. Overall, a great video.
This is by far the most useful video I've seen for this kind of job.
Great video. The thought of doing it myself gives me anxiety 😂
Grow a pair and just do it. :)
Lol I was thinking the exact same thing!!! 😂😂
Just go for it it’ll work, worst that can happen u peel it off
If I didn't know you painted the chrome I would've thought it was a factory midnight edition option. Great job
Knowing your business makes everything look so easy. Great video
That looks so clean! Factory Clean. I’m doing this to my Armada! Thanks for the video.
Thats a lot of work. Will consider wrapping over this, except for the rims ofcourse! But you did a great job, truck looks way much better and the paint detail on that black is really sparkly nice nice.
Wrapping takes just as much work and doesn't last forever lol
@@wals479 exactly!
Wrapping is a pain in the bum and depending on what wrap you buy and know what you're doing, you might get an orange peel sort of finish, creases etc. Might as well do a spray job
You made that look simple mate - nice work. You certainly know what you are doing. :)
Dude that looks a million times better
watching that clear coat go on under the light was deeply satisfying. now I want a spray gun like that lol
Awesome job, looks great - bloke knew what he was on about..
I used to paint cars yrs ago, I'm still one of the most amazing wetsand and buffing guys ever ! Love watching you work that gun 🎉 Base cost clear coat ❤
Now, if you were only my neighbor and we were good friends. Nice work. Huge difference.
I try to find tips for painting over chrome for like an year i found nothing ,thank you for the video 🤝✌
Car is looking better than before!
Thanks that's great really like the blacked out look. Don't forget door handles and windows too 👍
and all the emblems
Great video I was gonna use a heat gun to remove the chrome from the grill which would take a lot of time but this method is much easier and less time consuming thx for the video it’s very helpful 👍💯
My god that looks amazing. Excellent decision to paint.
Yay someone from Australia!!! Great job too!
thats a nice truck, I wish they sold it on the US. that metallic black really makes it POP!! great work!
Such a good paint color! Wish the whole car came that way!
Nice job and thanks for the inspiration. Another good project for my daily driver while the world is shut down. I'm going to rid my Honda Accord of chrome!
That looks tuff. Definitely a great vehicle for towing
Lower tow capacity than other trucks of different brands maybe the lowest
Man it looks soooo much better afterwards!!!! Thanks for the tips because I’m wanting to do my front grill now!!!!
Great job! Looks so much better now.
Chrome looks good on black and dark grey vehicles. Liked it better with the chrome. 😮
Great job I need to paint some window trim and side vents, now I know how thank you!
Good on ya mate
Outstanding work
I’m a big fan of spray-on bed liner 😀😀😀. Scuff and one coat!
Awesome job bro looks 100 times better
Nice job! I hate it when people plastidip front grills and the badge. Using proper paint makes all the difference!
One is easy and removable...
You missed the Nissan front emblem! Haha. Thanks for the video. I think I'm going to paint my trucks running boards. I bought the truck used with chrome running boards but my wife wants to black the truck out. This is definitely what I'll be doing instead of buying new black running boards lol
Excellent!!! Beautiful job dude.
nice. deep satin black would look great also.
Looks so much better
Awesome job mate!!
Also, funny to see you in a winter coat, I sometimes forget your seasons are opposites ours as I sit here and sweat lol
That looks so much nicer than the chrome.
Great job... much much nicer finish than to original chrome
Excellent end results. Need to hit them door handles as well. Going to do thus to my rig. Thanks.
Great job. There's a new 2k on the block and it has no pot life. You can use a lil now and a month from now. Car Rep. Bought and used and it's AMAZING. So nice not to have to have all the parts ready at same time and hurry up and coat. Now we can do hom much we can and not have to hurry or pay for more cans. Check them out. Car Rep 2k clear, primer even paint.
Looks Awesome!!! You make this difficult job look easy...
Them parts are Bullet Proof too with That clear Coat...looks awesome.
0:55 Use clip removal tools to remove the parts you want to paint
1:30 Water scuffing paste and grey scuffing pads
1:49 3m sanding sponges
1:56 Wax & Grease remover
2:07 Adhesion promoter (brand: UPOL, it’s grip #4, purple & black can)
2:24 10min after, use Black Etch Primer (V.G. Auto Paints & Tools. Custom Mixed Color. 20min to dry)
After this is all about whatever color
Looks so much tougher with black trim, I would Love to try this, great video
Informative !!! All its left is the NISSAN EMBLEM
That looks much better in black trim. I wish we had more vehicles like this in the USA. The closest thing we have is the Honda Ridgeline and previously the Ford Explorer Sport Track. Both are underpowered for towing. Although the new Jeep Gladiator just came out.
Wow 😯 you did such a great job 👏🏾
Looks great, much better than all that tacky chrome.
Ok. This guy is a pro!
And why factories don’t do this?!? Crazy!! Absolutely different and much better looking car
Looking really good!! Can’t wait to see how you do the wheels. And thanks for the info. I may be brave enough now to start restoring my 69 camaro. I want to do it blacked out!
Thank you. Great video with helpful insights.
Wow, that looks SO GOOD! I've got a 2018 F-150 with lots of chrome. Want to get rid of it all. So, I was excited to see this video. But NOPE! I don't have this level of skill or patience.😫. It would end up being a drip-and-run fiasco... maybe I can find a local artist like you! Thanks for sharing, looks great.
Amazing job and information. I am going to try my vehicle.
Looks awesome mate!!
Very nice work
Good job man looks heaps better 👌🏻
You did an excellent job!
Looking very nice...
Nice job and well explained. Looks great
Looks really slick, nice job.
Great advice. Will try that on motorcycle parts 😊
Gave it a hipster look! Looks great man, nice paint work!
Im doing this with our 2010 dodge journey. Just got racelines that are semi gloss black. Gonna pull the ugly grill off and paint it to match the body. Brilliant black pearl.
Damn good job brother!!!
Looks so good bro!
Looks amazing. Great job!
Sweet video. I've just bought a Navara, a white one. Looking to matt black all the parts you've just painted. Thanks for posting this video.
Looks a thousand times better but now you need to paint the wheels the same color so it all blends it perfectly.
Looks hella better now!
Love your work Dave
Very nice! Keep the good job 👏. Really good feeling to see you upload videos.
your love amases me
I can vouch for the Max 2K clear coat... I used it on the fairings on my race bike and it's a million times better than the 1-part aerosols. And the little Preval paint sprayers are great if you want to use custom colors but don't have a compressor or sprayer.
Love your work..
Awesome job..
Excellent job done Mate👍
You killed it! Also awesome video work!
Very cool stuff! Definitely informative. There's a few things that I didn't know about regarding paint and I appreciate you letting us know. I also like that you did the roof rails with spray cans. Gives someone some confidence because they turned out great on your UTE. I may have to send you an email asking a few questions but this was a very encouraging video. Thanks for the effort?
Beautiful job! Why on earth don't the manufacturers make them like this? To me it seems a no brainer which looks better. Yet they spend millions on design and still think people prefer chrome. Boggles the cranium
All that hard work but those shiny wheels.
Methmal dhananjaya check the next video
@@customspraymods Thanks for reply. gotta watch it.
Very good job
Amazing video! Very usefull! Exactly what I'm planning to do on my suv.
Looks really good, the worst part about new Nissans are their excessive use of chrome. Why I didn't get one
Seriously helpful video man, I've got a sr5 Hilux and hate all the chrome on it gonna get rid of some of it now
Looks great.
So how do you do the opposite? Make a chrome finish on a painted piece... love your channel.
Looks great, nice job !
Fantastic work bro!
Nice, door handles and window trim next!
looks awesome! id just add the door handles and the window trims
Looks way better then chrome
Big fan of the dark and blacking out. Not a fan of so much chrome plastic on cars these days. Excellent.
Looks incredible. Job well done!
Looks so much better, but you forgot the inner side of the front gril. Now it’s two tone and looks a bit busy.
Looks real nice
