DESCRIPTION AND USES

Rust-Oleum Automotive Premium Custom Chrome is a premium automotive lacquer designed to give an on-trend, chrome finish. Colored Chrome sheen provides extra shine and luster to automotive accent projects like interiors, wheels and striping. Colored Chrome creates a chrome effect without a base coat on smooth surfaces. 

PRODUCT APPLICATION

SURFACE PREPARATION

Sanding is not recommended. Thoroughly clean any surface dirt or contaminants, including finger smudges, with soap and water. Rinse and let dry. 

PRIMING

Use of Gloss Primer provides added corrosion protection, better adhesion and hiding. It is especially recommended for porous surfaces and bare metal. Use of a Matte Primer will lessen chrome effect.

APPLICATION

Use outdoors or in a well-ventilated area such as an open garage. Use when temperature is between 50°F and 90°F (10-32°C) and humidity is below 65% to ensure proper drying. Do not apply to surfaces that, when heated, exceed 200°F (93°C) or galvanized metal. Avoid spraying in very windy, dusty conditions. Cover surrounding area to protect from spray mist.

Shake can vigorously for one minute after mixing ball begins to rattle. If the mixing ball fails to rattle, DO NOT STRIKE. Contact Rust-Oleum. Shake often during use. Hold can upright 10-16" from surface and spray in a steady back-andforth motion, slightly overlapping each stroke. Keep the can the same distance from the surface. Keep the can in motion while spraying. Apply several light coats a few minutes apart. For matte surfaces, more coats are recommended. Do not use near open flame.

DRY AND RECOAT

Dry and recoat times are based on 70°F and 50% relative humidity. Allow more time at cooler temperatures. Dries to touch in 20 minutes, to handle in 1 hour, fully dry in 24 hours. Apply a second coat any time. Apply Universal High Gloss Clear top coat for maximum durability.

CLEAN UP

When finished spraying, clear spray valve by turning can upside down and pushing spray button for 5 seconds. Clean up wet paint with xylol or acetone. Throw away empty can in trash pickup. Do not burn or place in home trash compactor.

CLOGGING

If valve clogs, twist and pull off spray tip and rinse it in a solvent such as acetone. Do not stick a pin or other objects into the stem.
