A white or grey primer before the silver / chrome possibly? Light refracts in weird ways and what.s underneath also effects whats on top. Getting the right chrome paint seems to be a bit of a Holy Grail. Think you can get a mirror finish spray paint if your after that 'super shiny' mirrored chrome look. Top notch Mark! good on ya!
You basically just slapped it on, Mark.
Proper sanding, priming, then taking better care spraying it on & allowing it to cure before hitting it with a good quality clear coat. .. thats the way to judge it.
You just slapped it on like ya were throwing it away.
We didnt see it finished, we only seen a work in progress.
Next time, with your patience, work two small projects side by side n give the products yer checking out a fair chance.
Perhaps wet sanding between each step "may" improve it. In the end, it's going to be silver. Deceptive packaging, sure enough.
If you have an older bike n are just looking to improve its look not make it showroom, then its probably a decent product.
Id like to see it done on pitted chrome, say engine crash bars, sanded, prepped filled n primed correctly, then applied the chrome correctly in a dust free area, let it dry according to instructions then hit it with a good quality clear coat.
Im pretty sure it would take a 40% looking part up to the 80% & above very cost effectively.
Excellent, I'm DIY chrome spraying the inside of some traffic indicators here, and at least I know the finish I get will be at least half way good.
Also... love the dog.
Finally someone who talks my language, ... Maybe it's because I'm from the UK lol .... You would of got a better result with a smooth basecoat ... I do the Hydrochrome, it's mirror silver, looks the same as chrome ;-)
If you get a good chrome, then dupli color shadow chrome for a darker chrome effect....and something like polyacylic is less solvent reactive while experimenting.
Great vid as usual.
As an alternative you can also use Molotow chrome refill or Alclad chrome. These need to be airbrushed on though with black gloss undercoat and clear topcoat.
Something iv'e always wondered about and now we know. Thanks for the experiment, much appreciated. Cheers to your lovely assistant as always.
Those little glue balls, used to drive me nuts, then an old time painter and body guy showed me a trick, get a strip of the blue painter tape and use a piece to tack it off, the blue tape does not leave a residue.
Bloody Ripper... Thanks! :-)
Wow. That looks great. Best chrome in a can I've seen yet
And it was sprayed on a dark plastic with no primer
Id say it would do a decent job on pitted chrome if you prepped it right n worked patiently.
So I'm curious....what did Dulux do to that paint can lid to make it look so much like chrome? I assume the lid is plastic and it would be really expensive to chrome dip thousands of lids for their product..... Is that lid chrome plated somehow or is it painted?
Now you're going to be seeing speckles on the bikes from the overspray. Shoulda covered them.
Brilliant. I get a lot of hassle from mates who've never even tried stuff old school says isn't possible. Career mechanical engineers in high positions, aerospace etc, have never even tried some of the shit I've tried, and found out. For example, rust dissolution and permanent protection from future corrosion, painted or unpainted (your rear carrier) surface. So many people SHIT themselves about trying stuff because they "know better". They're losing out on all this bladdee stuff you're doing, mate.
Top channel.
;-)
Deserves a place on the wall, looks kind of a scruffy si-fi blade runner prop, just weathering a bit.. Cool as..
Have to say that your new work shop has turned out fantastic. Now l have to get my garage in order😀
I’ve used the same paint and had good results paint it gloss black first then a few passes of chrome lightly mirror finish 👍
All the best results ive seen is when its sprayed gloss black left to harden for a fee days then apply the chrome
I've always been a bit dubious about that chrome lid, thanks for clearing it up!
In Australia chrome sounds like crime lol good job
Thanks mate great video for letting people know about it 😊
Hi Mark for a better effect try Mercury silver ( Metallic base coat ) with a clear coat to follow.
They are a two pack paint mixing ratio is 1:1 Base coat and thinners, clear coat and hardener is usually 3:1 or two 2:1 Either PPG brand or Delfleet brand, dimple,s on the PVC may have been the texture on the plastic. A good tip is to always wear gloves so you don,t leave oils and greases from your skin on the jobs your painting, great effort though. Cheers David
Very interesting and entertaining. Will save me buying the stuff...thanks.
Try ALSA EASY CHROME available from Custom Spray Mods, spray it on with the black base coat and in a few seconds it looks just like chrome. Can even be clear coated, worth a look.
The key to getting a good result with these "chrome" paints is to use a heavy gloss base coat and a light coat of "chrome" on top.
Nothing works with duramax. It’s trash.
What if we spray it on top of a brand new glossy helmet without sanding it or applying primer
Mark, wear an appropriate mask please. I’m not a safety Sally, but you don’t want Chromed lungs😂. Seriously, had a friend growing up who use to spray paint various things, cars, bikes, woodwork, with no mask and he use to laugh about it......for years. At 47 years old, he had double lung cancer and throat cancer. Passed away one year later. Never smoked anything in his life. Never worked with Asbestos or any other substance like that. His main job was computer stuff, mainly IT. I also notice Nay not wearing masks. I’m calling you out, Nay!😁.
I will fly to Australia and kick both your butts, if you don’t start using masks!!! And, don’t just do it to appease the camera! For the love of God and Country......take care of yourselves😁
SC1 all over the stickers will also release the glue, and it smells great.
love it . i do scale kits . chrome effects work best when you layer a gloss black under the chrome. then buff it up. looks brilliant
When you spray clear coat on it , it completely destroys the paint looks and looks horrible , so buff it after I drys for a few days .
I see that lid every single time I check out the bunnings paint section. Thank you Mr Bits for saving my money. Any better alternative that you know of?
Chrome spray paint always looks better when applied over gloss black
I spent weeks painting the triple clamp on my dr650 with that duramax sparkle effect... same experience, it marked and came off when mounting my bars :( will try clear coat next time. Be great to see a video on painting rims
When I used clear coat to finish off my helmet when it first went on it made it look cloudy. Once dried it turned clear and shiny. Granted it wasn't sprayed over a chrome paint but I have to wonder if it didn't look better once cured.
Nope still crap! :-)
Mark go to a car paint shop and ask for tack cloths, that will help stopping bits in your paint. cheers wayne & Trish.
Or you could sand it back with the finest sand paper and then polish it and I reckon it would come up heaps better and be shiny as.....
Always thumbs up man, cause in love what you guys get into!... Be cool to see ya put a set of exhaust pipes on Harry!.... He deserves a set of Vance & Hines or cobra does he not?..... Come on Mark! .....lol
Its fine heck if you want it perfect you gotta sand it down before you paint then many coats wet sand in between but just for kicks what you did looks great! I want to do it to something around here, here kitty.....
Anyone know about these different colors supposedly available in spray cans ?
Thank you for your time. TN USA
Best way to enhance the chrome effect is to use Black gloss spray paint to prime underneath the chrome that way it gives it a better shine and mirror effect.
Edit: nvm I just saw how you know this, all good
Don't know if you have access to Rust-Oleum products down under, but their "Metallic Chrome" is quite nice. Might give you the look you want.
Try the Mirror Effect Spray Paint
You need to use the heat hair dryer after the spray .
Chrome spray or ( silver spray lol ) that I purchased did the same and it actually stated on the tin not to lacquer. It scratched easily too. I really don't know what this stuff would be useful for.
Interesting video. I'd like to see how Hammered Copper paint would look. 🤓
You need to have a look at the bed liner/raptor liner that can be sprayed on just about anything since you like experimenting. I'm looking at re spraying my whole 4wd with it. 👍Your trailer would probably look awesome done in it and would make it last more than the automotive paint that's on it. Even tool handles!
Yeah that's exactly what I what to do to the trailer! :-)
I thought this was an instructional video, I was wrong. As it turns out this is actually a video of YOU learning what NOT to do. =)
I used chrome spray paint in a can 30+ years ago. It seems it’s not any better today than it was back then. 👎
6 people working for Duralex apparently watched this video ;D
Guess you can't get the whole world, in a can.. Nice video Mark
LOL... Nice one! :-)
Thanks Mark, you just saved me some money.
Ur helmet paint was soft to scratch cuz u put the paint on too heavy too fast the bottom or first coat got covered by the second coat before it had a chance to finish outgassing so it releases its solvents into the top layer which gets soft and solvent pops the outer surface .the gasses erupted through the partially hardened outer surface which creates these very tiny micro pops or bubbles witch gives it a dull finish
Hi Mark & Ney.
Good job exposing DULUX's false Marketing.
I think if this happened in the USA someone would be contacting a lawyer for advice.
But rather just buy alternative products.
Regards from S Africa

I dont think the paints going to stick but you could try wet and dry then buff with a compound
Bloody hell thets bloody good cobber
Just in case you ever wonder what those shiny little silver specks are on your motorcycles... re-watch this video.
Hey mate have you found any good Chrome paint in Australia?
No but haven't been searching or trying any other ones!
I’m thinking some black base coat would’ve made a difference
You are my new favorite person. Instant subscribe earned.
You should remove Harry so he doesn't get over spray over him. Excellent trial comparison. Thanks Mark
Ha! "Bright Silver" is a cheap trick! Another great video Mark!
Well, damn that didn’t work out. But it would of looked really cool hanging on the wall. 👍🏼
Loved the vid as ever mate, my thoughts on the paint use as follows, perhaps you would have been better off using a primer that is compatible with that paint? I'm not familiar with that particular dulux product, but I've learnt from experience that the quality of the painted finish is 90% in the preparation. Anyway, by no means a criticism, just my thoughts my friend, cheers Ant.
You need to give it the Zippo touch up or hold a Zippo in front of the spray can . . . really lights it up to a bright gloss . . Lol .
What about using polishing compound instead of clear coat? Enjoy your vids very much. Good honest content
Thanks for showing us how bad that stuff is mate haha love your work
I wonder how it would come up after a buff and polish, maybe even a wet sand
Do the heat blower after spray it will shine . Dont you know.
Wait till paint cured then buff
Hi Mark , definitely gave it a good go , I think you busted the myth on the chrome in a spray can , it a shiny silver , myth BUSTED hahahahahahaha
2:15 Right at his bike
Please show us what the helmet looks like after buffing it a bit.
Repaint it bright yellow so it's a safety colour and looks shit hit and blinds people in the sun lol .
It’s literally the worst paint on the planet. You want proper chrome get spazstix ultimate mirror chrome. Use a 2 pack base coat first, they have a black backer base coat but it’s been hard to get in an aerosol can lately. If you can’t get their basecoat don’t try use something else unless it’s 2 pack. The lacquer is so strong it will dissolve any basecoat; acrylic or enamel and ruin your mirror finish. Trust me I’ve been blowing tons of money experimenting.
Cheap paint can - VHT chrome comes up good as chrome
Best chrome in a can is AlsaCorp
chrome paint works better with a imperfection base & black base paint

Love your channel brother!.... Been following a long time.... Where did the model of the easy rider bike come from!?
I got it online somewhere... Many years ago :-)
now do the gold one lol
Got a good laugh
as a kid i painted my BMX in spray can chrome . totally devastated 12 year old .
Same here!! Got my first bike months before Bmx came out. So i had a dork bike .A Crushing experience,but made me a good mechanic,trying to turn into something it wasn't.And the chrome in a can certainly didn't save it.
Hi a Mark,
Yeah...is always disappointing after you go to the effort to paint an item and the results are not as expected 👎.
Canned Chrome was always gonna be a hit and miss affair.
At least you didn’t use it on the bike rack 👍.
Cheers.
💯👍Save money on my engine parts
Looks about as good as it was 20 years ago.
The cap should seriously be what the finished product will be shouldn't it.
I know this helmet won't be used, but just incase anyone thought they'd try it on a helmet they intend to wear... Don't.
Many paints can damage helmets.
Ask them how they (spray) their can caps chrome.
Good honest video. Subscribed
I looks good , but it looks like polished stainless steel.
Just in time XD
Now we all know what you have been using on your hair and beard !!! ;-)
It looks like polished aluminium rather than chrome.
Don’t give up your day job just yet
LOL :-)
like trying to polish a turd
This is why you never see the guy with nice chrome that says he did it
Second damn
