SupraAyf Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Looking very nice indeed. I tried to chrome-paint my entire engine bay on my red Supra three years ago and all my parts went a gold shade of chrome because the correct temperature wasn't being achieved by the machine during and prior to the paint process.

scotty71 Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Looks good mate but I think you need to specify (chrome paint) or Chromed. What TT parts will you be doing and will they be chrome painted or chromed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 every plastic thing is chrome painted metal is chromed or polished. the plastic chrome painting works out like 3 times more than a dipped metal chrome, i know i have had a few shocks when getting bills through but never one to argue, i just let the finished item do the talking and like having something different. doing most tt parts mate just need to get a collection together to start exchanging mate.

scotty71 Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Was just asking Rob as your saying you are having plastic items chromed. Customers may get confused. As discussed before as Im in Burton it would be cheaper for me to get any plastic items Chrome painted direct as this is the same guy that does your parts yes? scotty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 oh yeah i know scotty, i would just put them to deal direct with gold rush etc im not getting involved in painting chrome its too much money and people would complain when i gave them the bill. im just doing chroming and polishing matey as a service.

scotty71 Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 (edited) yeah i fell on my back when i asked how much it was to chrome paint..... as with your engine bay though looks spot on and not many in the UK can do it as they dont have the equipment s-G8u_DAJfE Edited October 30, 2010 by scotty71 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 i think mine has come out ok now, not a flying machine like lee's or jamies but it gets alot of attention for a na and its been fun. i think its time to invest (WASTE) money into better things like the single build... and its big boys stuff now, the figures zoom. this will be around for a year or 2 till everything is bought, then its all coming out.
