I added paint to the album Thanks to my colleagues for the feedback. But I'm not very happy with the result myself, I wanted a more mirrored surface

Have you heard of ALCLAD Lacquer? It comes in different types of "aluminum" but can be polished or buffed to a high gloss.

Of course, I heard and even bought it when I flew to America, and now this paint is expensive and difficult to get in our country

Alexander, maybe it would be worth spraying some out on a scrap sheet of plastic.... Leave it good few days to harden..... Then try buffing, just a soft cloth and if that doesn't work...a little canopy polish n water.
Chrome paint has to have a very wet coat!! But runs can happen too !!
Looks great anyway....it's all a learning day.
Good luck 👍👍👍

Thanks for the advice, in any case, this is another experience and there is something to strive for

I found that before laying down metal paint, spraying the surface with 3 layers of GX 100, and sanding it up to 12,000 between layers then buffing it to a high gloss really makes a very good surface for a mirror finish. Xtreme metal chrome seemed to work the best for me.
