yeah i use it as my primary base coat for my tramslucent colors. IMO when cleared it looks more like polished aluminum or a bright silver more then chrome. pictures can be decieving so dont read too much into these.

i use it alot for the "car" guys. pulleys and bracketry...even done a few sets of carb bowls. i guess its ok as long as ya dont expect it to ressemble a true chromed part or have the durabilty of real chrome

Yep, the chrome looks awsome, but it is nothing like real triple chrome.

sweet...that looks even better than the 250R did...get this the chrome is chipping off of my dg pipe...someone told me they used to triple layer the pipes...now they only do one coat....and i can believe that cuz my old dg never chipped it just broke in half:huh ...lol


i just love the sound and power that they put out

my 330 sounds like a growling harley...twice as good as the big gun on the 416


see ya guys
