Is MirraChrome the Next Big Bling?

The most popular color to buy a car in has long been silver, but one U.K. company is now offering a variation on that them. Chrome is the new silver, with shiny body panels apparently set to be the next big thing, according to thecarconnection.com.

MirraChrome is claimed to be the world’s most realistic chrome-effect paint finish, with 98 percent of the reflectivity of true chrome-plating. It’s the stuff was used on a Lamborghini Murcielago in the recent video by rapper 50 Cent.

Due to our searches we recommend ViChrome of ARGON international
(www.argon-international.de/vichrome/vichrome.shtml). This coating has releases of AIRBUS and other manufacturers. ViChrome is very successfully used for years. ViChrome does not have to be repolished. ViChrome cannot oxidize also.
Finally the protection is the most interesting feature. Therefore ARGON developed a clearcoat called Protector-Plus (www.protector-plus.de)

Sample lacquer finishes more than 15 years ago in Saudi Arabia have today still another gloss degree of 94%.
The rehearsing lacquer finishes were implemented on a goldplated roof. They bore hundreds of sandstorms up to today.
