Munkin Posted November 3, 2020 Report Share Posted November 3, 2020 What does everyone recommend for chrome and gold powder paint? I want to give it a try and am looking to see what everyone likes. Allen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted November 3, 2020 Report Share Posted November 3, 2020 Allen, If you want your jigs to be shiny, then you will have to get them plated. Otherwise, Pro-Tech is your best bet. You can also try spray cans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4/0 Posted November 3, 2020 Report Share Posted November 3, 2020 This is " Gold Glitz " from CC. I have their Chrome Bond that I could paint up and post if you would like. I use for first coat under Candy's ( still learning ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toadfrog Posted November 3, 2020 Report Share Posted November 3, 2020 Youtube has videos on home electro plating. There are some paints that have Nano technology I hear are the best , As far as I know they are not readily available in The U.S. I tried to order some out of country but was told it could not be shipped here.

4/0 Posted November 4, 2020 Report Share Posted November 4, 2020 As Dink said CC is Columbia Coatings. I had seen it referred to as CC on here before so I used that. Below is the Chrome bond and I also painted another Gold Glitz but this time I used the chrome Bond first and baked then the Gold Glitz . A raw head is there for reference . Seems a little " Brighter" to me than above picture of the Gold with no undercoat. These are 1/2 oz. heads, need to pour some more 1/4's. Gold Glitz # M3678061 All in One Chrome # M2692012 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gold looks better than Pro-tech, however the silver looks like the Protech and couple of other chromes I have at home. Thank for the pics? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
