Krylon Nickle Silver Paint

Re: Krylon Nickle Silver Paint
could you post a pic after it is completely dry? if it is already and you like the look, go with it. I used some of that on an old lawnmower i tricked for a neighbor's kid. looked great while it was still tacky, but after it flashed, it only looked good. I shot it with rattle can clear, and it looked great again. the lawnmower was a poor man's 4 wheeler, as I took the deck off.

Re: Krylon Nickle Silver Paint
The Nickle Silver is a satin finish paint. Get some satin clear to spray over it.

Re: Krylon Nickle Silver Paint
Is this the paint you are asking about?
If so, this is it on my tank, and part of the cab floor. |

Re: Krylon Nickle Silver Paint
I decided a few months ago that is what the color of my Burb's roof will be. The main portion will be Ford racing blue. It looks good ChevyFreak.

Re: Krylon Nickle Silver Paint
Great color for sure
I would have cleared it. I have yet to find a silver in a spraybomb or brush on that doesn't come off on your fingers when rubbed. T

Re: Krylon Nickle Silver Paint
I have used this Krylon paint line and it looks great but have had flaking off issues with it...prep it well and put a clear coat on it.
