Just a word of caution...the Alsa "chrome" paint in a can didn't do jack squat for me. I'm very wary of places that advertise instant chrome in a can. Hope that's not the case here.

Title: 24K Gold on your Cougar/Tbird

ok! just remember the refinish is only as good as the bottom material. Notice the "Thunderbird" in gold is all cracked cause You cant fix it or at least not yet. Wondering if nickle plating would help

What if you soda or sand blasted it? I'd try and soda blast it as its not to rough.

it has to be conductive for the electroplating, blasting it would remove the metals (Im thinking) and I dont have either a soda or silica blaster
