Chrome Spray paint? And footpegs

[EazyDuz]

Is it possible to re-chrome plastic? Just a chrome spray paint kind of thing? Any particular brand?
Also my bikes footpegs are helt on the shaft with a bent bit of metal wire, i dont know the correct term for it but they are often used on axles just as a failsafe if the nut came loose.
I just wondered how to remove it, ive pulled it with pliers as hard as i can and it wont come out, do you have to cut them and replace them?
Thanks

You have to straighten out the bend first then pull through with pliers. If it wont budge then just bost it off and get a new one, they are 10 a penny.


Chrome spray pain dosent work. Its just silver really unless they have changed it.

Is rubbish, it looks nothing like chrome, more a metallic silver. If you lacquer it to make it durable then it makes it go dull grey.

I've heard it can be done with another product but requires a lot of time, prep and a decent airbrush.

You used to be able to get chrome plating kits from ebay for not a lot of money. They're good for little parts. You'll need to paint plastics with a zinc primer first but it can be done fairly easily.

They are 2 side panels about 8x6" which are chromed but they are scratched and pitted.
What is the cheapest method to re-chrome them?
