Messing around with some of it at the moment. This has to be cleaned and cleared.

It will look a lot more like chrome when finished Pete. And yes, good for bumpers.

I suppose you are now going to tell me it is radioactive or made of Unobtainium, or can only be sprayed in a Nuclear Bunker in Canada........

I've used some rattle can paint before on fibre glass and came out well, from 3ft or so it looks chromed. Would use again
I used: VHT CHROME PLUS PLATE FINISH PAINT SP525-1

No Pete, nothing strange. You lay down the shiniest black base coat, then mist on the chrome, then clear coat. Job done. Used the Alsa product. Bit more expensive, but worth it.
