Alclad
About to test some myself. It better work, a 59 Cadillac has miles of chrome........................
Mind you, I've seen some impressive results.
It all depends on the quality of the black enamel you use under Alclad Chrome. If you are able to get perfectly smooth and glossy black surface, you will get perfect chrome finish with Alclad.

Tom - As mentioned, Alclad Chrome is the stuff you need. I witnessed an application of it at the Region 2 contest last year and became a believer. The stuff worked as promised be fellow modelers and I promptly bought two bottles. You should be able to get it for around $7 per if you look around a little. Good stuff but still don't count Spray-Metal down for the count. I've gotten very nice results from it as well.

You guys are great!
I'll be getting some for this project and I'll let y'all know how it goes.

And the Gloss Black Base which Alclad now has in their line works very well for this. I got a bottle (same size as the Alclad II bottles) for $3.95 US.
This is an old thread, but I just found an interesting item:
