- Does it really look like chrome?
- It gives a bright metallic silver sheen, but it is a paint finish, not a mirror-like plated chrome. A clear topcoat helps it hold the look.
- Do I need a primer?
- On bare or rusted metal, a rust-inhibiting primer improves adhesion and protection. On sound, clean existing paint it can go on directly.
- How long until I can recoat?
- It is dry to the touch in about 60 minutes. Apply several thin coats rather than one heavy coat for an even finish.
- Can I use it indoors?
- Yes, but spray it with strong ventilation and let it cure fully before bringing the item inside.
- Will it stop existing rust?
- It slows corrosion on prepared metal. Remove loose rust and scale first; paint over flaking rust will not hold.
- What surfaces does it work on?
- Metal and wood are the listed surfaces. Clean and degrease them before spraying for the best bond.
