Why is the SprayChrome process superior to ordinary Chrome Plating?
Aside from the reasons mentioned above, Chrome Plating can only be applied to metal surfaces and coatings will not stick to it. The fact that chrome plating cannot be coated makes it much more susceptible to damage. Once the chrome surface is broken, peeling and flaking will result. SprayChrome has a lot of the same properties of a painted surface except that metals are used instead of paint. Chrome is very rigid and cannot flex. That is why you see Chrome peel off a pipe or wheel or any surface that has been bent ever so slightly. SprayChrome can be applied to semi-flexible products such as plastics or fiberglass. Because of the protective coatings used in the SprayChrome process, the topcoat can be tinted in almost any color making it much more decorative than ordinary Chrome Plating.
