chrome looking spray paint
I have a small piece that looks like it was originally a very shinny zinc plated finish NOT a chrome finish and part of it has flaked off and rusted......Have any of you "Barner's" used any of the rattle can "shinny" finish spray paint with good results??? Its a small horn screen SO not in direct line of sight type of piece that is sort of up inside the trumpet of the horn!!!
Thanks Rockfla |

Never painted one but made a replacement a while ago out of stainless mesh of the appropriate dimension from EBAY.

Re: chrome looking spray paint
Rustoleum rattle can chrome just looks like silver paint. Don't use if wanting a comparable chrome like finish.

Re: chrome looking spray paint
Thanks for all the replies. Fortunately for me, I pulled my piece out to clean it with a small wire brush OR maybe blast it in my cabinet and found that the "suspect" area was just MUNGE!! I cleaned it with some warm soapy water and its ready to be re-installed. Thanks for everyone's in put!!!!
