I think that side-by-side comparison videos is what the powder coating universe is missing on KZbin. Just about everyone has already covered how to powder coat. Keep up the good work my friend.

[@710performance]

Good idea! We can explore that! Thanks for the feedback!

[@matty332010]

Secret chrome for sure. Thanks again for the upload, keep them coming. I would love to see you guys finish that oven sometime maybe put a big 710 performance stencil on the side or the one with the gas mask would look cool too.

[@710performance]

We've been talking about finishing up the oven after the move =)

@@710performance Yeah that would likely be better.

[@samuelacosta782]

I think the secret chrome looks the best! Can’t wait for the reveal of where you got it from.

[@710performance]

We're going to do some more tests with it first so we can all see how it compares with others, and if it's worthy and then we'll have some more information about it. 👍

[@cannaroe1213]

What I love about the cans is I really know what those look like, its a great default form for painting

[@710performance]

They really are! 💪

[@matthewp58]

It a as really hard to tell through the camera, but I really think that each company's powder is formatted to be paired with their base and clears, etc, just my 2 cents. But keep up the videos!!!

[@710performance]

You could be right. We are going to test different companies top coats on the different chromes as well, so that will give us all an idea.

@@710performance good deal, ive got my first order in from prismatic cant wait to get home and play with it.

[@maiknagradic1157]

You should put the links to the products otherwise very useful video

[@710performance]

Thank you, will do. Most of those products are not available, they have changed to other products

[@TheYAMAMAHA]

So.. if you want the chrome, you spray the chrome, but to protect the chrome from oxidizing, you must clear coat it. Then the clear takes away "chrome". Leacing you with a silver grey and not chrome. So whats the point?

[@710performance]

Exactly!

[@TheYAMAMAHA]

@@710performance that sucks, most places in my state want nothing to do with dipping motorcycle frames.

[@MrEvilinc420]

Chrome zone looks more like brushed aluminum

[@710performance]

It does!

[@INTIREMOBILETIRESHOP]

Liquipowder claims that they have a product that enables you to add powder coating powder to a liquid to be sprayed with a regular spray gun. Do you think it's possible? And if so...will it do chrome?

[@710performance]

Columbia Coatings has the same type of product. It works, but not as well as you would think it does. We've used some with an airbrush but not an actual spray gun. Chrome powder coat it not UV stable, so you would have to put a clear coat over it, and when you do that with chrome powder coat, everyone of them turn silver, so no it would not work with chrome.

[@codyblair1427]

Try getting Michelob Ultra aluminum bottles. They don't dent or crease as easily as the cans, and you can put a screw through the cap on a piece of wood and you can unscrew them from the cap to take them of your display wall and then put them back once your done.

[@710performance]

Thanks for the tip, we have been looking for some, but we don’t know anybody who drinks that kind of alcohol and we do not drink alcohol.

[@jamespolucha8790]

I think without the clear looks better

[@710performance]

It does, but it won't last, chrome needs a clear coat, it will yellow if UV stable clear is not used, and the clear will turn it silver, not chrome.

[@georgeburns5811]

Super Chrome II looks the best through the camera. Good test!

[@710performance]

It does look pretty good without the clear! And we know the camera did change it some! Thank you for your support and feedback.

[@thedude4632]

I’d like to see you use the new water born clear top coat . Does it cloud the chrome ?

[@710performance]

That would be worth trying out!

[@Scubastevetampabay]

I would like to see you spray the different chromes on a flat piece of metal label them And let them sit in the sun and check them once a month for 6 months.

[@710performance]

That is something we've talked about doing. It would be one of the best tests for chrome powder coat we can think of.

[@Scubastevetampabay]

Like you said in your video that KZbin is flooded with powder coat videos and that they're pretty much all the same. I would like to see you give information that no one else is giving. Like testing but you have to label and show the label with data info like date, time of year and how many hours of 🌞 was exposed. Did they get rained on how much rain was on them?? Rain carries lots of harmful Acis harmful acidic properties in it.. The other thing that I like to see in videos is where the applicator speaks in their video (voice over not during this gives you a chance to speak about things you may have forgot to mention) as their applying powder and explain why they do little circles why they pull back why they go over it and over it again. Not to many people are doing that. This stuff is not easy and people who are teaching how to powder coat are not given all the information. A lot of critical steps being glossed over. Also one thing I really like about your channel is you seem to be real and show when you mess up or or point out your flaws. Keep up the good work.

[@710performance]

[@PhilYR-x7x]

Great Video, Thanks! Any chance you can drop the name of the manufacturer of Secret Chrome? Seems as though the inter web is blocking any results to my search.

[@710performance]

We were the only company that had it released under that name

[@kevinlancaster6041]

They all looked the same. Did you figure outwhy you were getting black dots? Was it having a chemical reaction, maybe contaminated. Or maybe it needed 2 coats of base for better coverage

[@710performance]

We had some contamination in the line.

[@slidenthru9203]

clear=clouds ? I always thought that clear would enhance the base coat.

[@710performance]

Not usually with chrome powder coat

[@rymirc665]

videos are great. but so much talking. so much repeating of what you just said🤷‍♂️

[@710performance]

Thank you for the feed back, we've heard that and we're working to fix it!

[@bobeaseshop9389]

I did a video on a part that I could not get in my over so I shot the Eastwood chrome and cured it with a heat gun. It worked fine. Everyone was upset that I didn't clear it as that was the "correct" method - so I was told. About a week ago I shot Prismatic chrome on wheels and also had Prismatic clear. The Prismatic chrome looked great until I shot it with the Prismatic clear and it dulled it badly. I just shot over the clear mess with chrome again and it looked alright. Stunning how the clear messed it up and it was the same brand. My feeling was the world doesn't know what colour a powder coat is and that chrome is the same thing as clear in make up. These were wheels for a 1957 farm truck so it was kinda ok to meatball it but overall I don't think I'll clear over anything chrome again although I like it over colours sometimes. Nice work and I could not help but watch every second of your test. Thank you. Bobby

[@710performance]

When you clear over chrome powder coat it will dull out. All clear powder coat will make it dull out. Chrome powder coat is also not UV stable, so it will look good for a few weeks or a month, but the chrome color will yellow and lose it's color and reflection.

Chrome powder coat is not UV stable. If you powder coated your wheels this color they would be yellow in a week.

So my best option if I want a chrome look just go polished or buy new rims

[@710performance]

@@whathetruckk there is a chrome cerakote that you can get, but it might be cheaper to get new wheels. For the chrome cerakote you need a $20k bead polisher to polish them after the cerakote is applied or it won't work correctly.
