Re: Chrome paint for plastic wheels
From my research, the best chrome out there is Molotow Liquid Chrome, but it is really only sold as pens (or as a pen refill). For something like wheels, it needs to be airbrushed. It seems to do better on some plastics than others, and I think it actually likes heavy coats, so it can flow and self-level a bit. It turned out pretty good on my BF wheels, but it has turned out better on other surfaces I have done.
I build RCs like people would have done back in the '90s ..................................... if they had 3D printers.
