Duplicolor Shadow Chrome

Hello All. Do any of you guys / or girls have experience with Duplicolor Shadow Chrome. I was thinking about "Darkening" my emblems and other chrome bits on the car. I just don't want to cheapen the look of a great looking ride. Any and all feedback appreciated as always.

So a lot of people have looked at this post. No one has said anything. Is it that no one has heard of or used it? or is it just a cr*ppy product. I have watched some you tube videos and it looks pretty cool.

never heard of it...but lots of folks use Plasti-Dip on their chrome pieces, so if they don't like it it peels right off. Plasti-dip now has some cool colors too, a dark greyish oneis one of their colors, can't remember the name right now though...

what I like about the duplicolor stuff is that its translucent like MHT night shades. It basically allows the chrome underneath to still shine. I think Ive got to try a science project next week. Its $20 bucs for the paint and the clear so I was gonna de-badge anyway if I didn't like it. If it looks good then the bar across the trunk and the grille are next.

i have heard of it and even used it before. i gives you the black chrome effect. looks good but the downside is its very hard to remote the paint if you dont like it.
