So you just sprayed directly over the chrome? Or did you have to sand on it?

Just sprayed straight on the chrome after I wiped it down with some denatured alcohol. I did a light coat first and let it almost dry then went over it again with a heavier coat.

I'll let my buddy know lol. The shop isn't very wide but it's pretty long. He's got a new crew cab chevy and we can park nose to nose in there and close both bay doors

Instead if starting another thread, I'll just add to this one

Started on the rear bumper. It's my one day off this week and the first day it's not scorching outside (yet)

Great job on the bumpers. They look sweet. Gives your truck that Sport look.
