I recently purchased a G1 figure that has some plastic chrome parts. Unfortunately the plastic chrome has got worn out over the years. As you can can see, the feet of the figure has turned yellow. Can anyone recommend any plastic paints I can buy to try to get it back to it's original silver chrome color? The silver color looks a lot like the silver color of coin.

Thanks for the link! However, it is really expensive! Are there cheaper alternatives? Also, what about using a paint brush instead?

 

I’m sure

I’m sure there are other options. That just happens to be one of the best paints to match the original G1 chrome.

 

If you have a Hobby Lobby near you, you can use the coupons they have and pick them up for a decent price. That's if you state isn't forcing those stores to close.

Also check the Molotow Chrome thread for tips. The paint is very delicate and it picks up fingerprints that are not removable.

 

Yup. It has about a two month curing time before you can handle it without kid gloves.

 

Is it safe at that point? I remember waiting a month and it still dulled the finish when I touched it. I haven't tried since I started using Alclad as a top coat.

 

I mean I'm still gentle with it but after two months it's fairly solid.

 

Thanks, I bought it weeks ago and it works great!
