How to Buy Black Chrome Paint

Whether you're restoring a motorcycle or adding a touch of black chrome to your craft projects or floral arrangements, black chrome paint is easy to find at craft stores, online retailers and automotive shops. If you are using black chrome paint to restore your remote control car or to add a metallic look to picture frames or dried leaves, you can purchase small spray cans or jars of black chrome paint from a hobby or craft supply store.

Instructions

1. Visit your local hobby shop. Browse the selection of black chrome paint for remote control (R/C) cars and airplanes. If you are using the black chrome for trim on your R/C car, look for paint that comes in small 1/2-ounce bottles. Before purchasing, check if the paint comes with a small brush or applicator. If not, purchase one from the hobby shop.

2. If you need black chrome paint for your craft projects, browse the selection at your local hobby or art supply shop. Look for scratch-resistant spray paints that will not rub off when applied to the surface of flowers, wood, ceramic, plastic and metal. Most chrome paints for craft projects come in small 3.5- or 5.5-ounce aerosol spray cans.

3. Visit an automotive paint supply store. Browse through catalogs to find the ideal color and type of black chrome paint. If you are using the paint on your car or motorcycle, you will want heat-resistant paint that will not peel, crack or flake. Tell the salesperson what you are planning to use the paint for and ask if she has any suggestions.
