I have not been happy with how alclad holds up over time.
Maybe I didn't do something right but it ends up looking quite boring after a year.

I really need to know because I'm working on Mark 5 iron man suit which is silver and red.

without paying to get it chromed which cost a ton.. I like this
chrome link. really comes out nice.

yep before I found out.. done everything I could no one cares or wants to help. so im stuck with it... and if
you look for the the thread you can see what a crappy job he did. I added pics I jumped in to fast. and hate it
I seen amazing work on here. and now know what to look for,trust me I kick myself everytime i look at it and want to smash it
but keep it to remind me what done is done.. and so life goes on.

The folks at Creations n Chrome are amazing!
Also...Dan at Coat of Chrome (google it
) is a great guy.
I'll repeat what others have listed: SpasStix, Imperial | The Next Generation In High Tech Custom Paints, Alsa Corp | The World's Most Exotic Paints and Finishes ....
if you use Alsa or Spaz...make sure that you dust it lightly like a thousand times...and have a good slick black surface as a base.

Thanks for the tip on "Coat of Chrome" and you're right, Don is a great guy. After bugging him for a month or two, I finally had this lid primed and silky smooth before shipping to him in December. The whole job, including the masking and painting of the black areas, was under $300 shipped.
