Challenge: How to create chrome signs?

Solution: Cosmichrome Spray Chrome!

Czarnowski recently completed a project that showcased their signmaking capabilities and the versatility of Cosmichrome spray chrome. The project involved creating large foam Chevy Bow Tie signs and coating them with Cosmichrome spray chrome. Cosmichrome is a revolutionary spray chrome paint that provides a durable, mirror-like finish. It is a great alternative to traditional chrome plating, as it is much faster and more cost-effective. It is also environmentally friendlier, than traditional chromium electroplating. The challenge was how to create chrome signs and with which product.

Czarnowski used their expertise in signmaking to create these large foam Chevy Bow Tie signs. They used a CNC router to cut the foam into the desired shape and size. Once the foam was cut, they applied a primer to the surface to level the foam and to ensure that the Cosmichrome spray chrome would adhere properly. Once the primer was dry, they applied the Cosmichrome spray chrome. The spray chrome was applied in three layers, with each layer being allowed to dry before the next layer was applied. This process was repeated until the desired finish was achieved. The end result was a stunning set of large foam Chevy Bow Tie signs that were coated with a durable, mirror-like finish in both chrome and gold. The signs were a great example of the versatility of Cosmichrome spray chrome and the signmaking capabilities of Czarnowski.

If you are looking for a cost-effective and environmentally friendly way to achieve a chrome finish, then Cosmichrome spray chrome is the perfect solution. It is fast, economical, and provides a durable, mirror-like finish in a dozens of different chrome colors.

Off Axis Paint is a certified NASCAR helmet painter. They paint a considerable number of the helmets worn by NASCAR drivers. Off Axis Teamed up with Cosmichrome to offer chrome helmets to the drivers. We are proud they selected Cosmichrome as their spray chrome. Cosmichrome is the only spray chrome that can meet the demands of Off Axis Paint. The taping and cutting used to produce their designs would destroy competing spray chrome products. Those spray on chromes would just peel apart when the tape is removed. Cosmichrome won’t fail cutting and taping.

We Recommend SATA Paint guns for the best Cosmichrome finish

When you are spray a finish as smooth and reflective as Cosmichrome you need the finest paint guns to get a perfectly smooth finish. An inferior paint gun will produce a rough, orange peel finish in the chrome. You can’t hide orange peel in a finish that needs to be as smooth as chrome plating.

Using the right paint gun will make a remarkable difference in the quality of your final Cosmichrome finish. Remember, you are trying to simulate very smooth chrome electroplating. An inexpensive paint gun will not perform well enough to give the best results. You spent the money on the right Spray Chrome machine when you bought a Cosmichrome system. Get the right paint gun too.

We recommend the SATAjet 5000B HVLP with a 1.3mm tip. The digital model is shown below. A standard model is also available for a lower price. Please tell us which model you prefer.

Cosmichrome keeps minor mistakes from becoming disasters.

Cosmichrome is the only spray chrome that allows you to safely and easily remove the spray chrome metal without harming the base coat. If you notice a defect in your plating you can just remove the silver with bleach, then re-spray the Cosmichrome! No need to sand and re-apply the base coat!

Touching the base coat of competing spray chrome products is forbidden. Touching the base coat ruins their base coat finish and it will have to be sanded and re-applied. This drawback can add days to your project, sanding and waiting for base coat to dry. Cosmichrome allows you to simply remove the metal layer and re-spray the metal. This is a major technical advancement in spray chrome. Everyone makes a mistake once in a while.

Achieving a perfect chrome spray plating is easy when you remain aware of all the parameters that can have an impact on the results. Like all professional paint projects, these parameters range from temperature, humidity, dust, fingerprints, and so on. Thankfully, there is a way to salvage your part without having to sand your part and re-apply the base coat! Bleaching the base coat to re-plate a part is easy to do with Cosmichrome BCL base coat.

Bleaching A Part For Re-Plating

BLEACH THE PART!

WHAT YOU’LL NEED:

• RUBBER GLOVES
• MICROFIBER CLOTH
• SOFT BLUE SHOP TOWELS
• CUP OF BLEACH
• COSMICHROME BASECOAT CLEANER
• THE PART TO BE BLEACHED

*NOTE: This process can only be done if the Topcoat has not yet been applied to the part.*

THE PROCESS

The part that needs re-plating will need the plating to first be removed.

We begin this process by saturating our soft blue shop towels into the cup of bleach. After it is well saturated, gently rub the bleach into the part. The chrome should begin to quickly dissolve and reveal the Basecoat underneath. Continue to rub and wipe away the plating until all the plating is removed. Re-soak your shop towel in bleach and remove any residual plating residue. Grab a new shop towel, soak in bleach and wipe down the piece as a final rundown. Now rinse your part very thoroughly with distilled water to remove any leftover bleach. Be aware that any leftover bleach will oxidize the metal and make the product look yellow! So rinse very well!

Now that the old plating is gone, we can prepare the part for re-plating.

Apply Cosmichrome Base Coat Cleaner to the part to clean the base coat for re-plating. Gently rub in the Basecoat Cleaner into the part. Be careful to not apply too much pressure. Now, rinse away Basecoat Cleaner with distilled water.

Now re-flame the part to prepare it for re-plating. After that, apply the A22 Activator solution. This activates the Basecoat for plating adhesion. Rinse again with distilled water, getting rid of any excess A22.

Time for re-plating.

Apply G4 & G5 plating solutions. Rinse with distilled water.

Congratulations! You have successfully re-plated a part!
