you guys think this would work to make the calipers chrome??

I've seen this stuff long time ago and supposedly it works. BUT I dont know how well they'll stand up to heat. You should email/call them about it. They may be okay with LS400 calipers (they dont get hot after driving), but the OEM iron/steel caliper gets HOT.

 

If it works well, you may end up needing to clean the calipers everyday to keep it looking good.

 

I just googled around. Looks like they aren't as great as I thought they would be. Many say it just looks like a more reflective silver paint than chrome. Plus the cans are expensive at $40+. You might as well spend a bit more and get them chrome dipped. At least it'll be more durable than paint.

 

ALSA is crap! I'd never paint anything using that stuff...... *puke*

you could just have them powdercoated..
powdercoating can give an appearance VERY similar to chrome, plus is a LOT more durable than paint when applied right.

 

Damn... I was hoping the ALSA stuff worked... I wanted to chrome out my cat... Meow Zedong would've been pimpin.

 

I was reading some reviews on HIDplanet, guys were using this stuff to paint shrouds and they said what someone above said, its just a little more reflective than silver paint, but not close to chrome by any means.

 

PM MrExecutiv...he had his calipers chromed at Atlas chrome I believe, and could maybe give feedback regarding durability.

 

Remember one thing it's spray paint and what does spray paint to crack, peel and chip very easy. Good luck but at $39.99 a can I will pass on this one.

 

damn man forget about paint in a can or powder coating did you bother looking at the link i posted or ?

 

this part is chrome powdercoated.
