Lightbulb Another Paint Question

Has anyone here used DupliColors chrome paint? I was thinking of trying it on the black center caps on the stock steel wheels. I`m just looking for a few opinions from anyone who has tried it.How did it look and would clear coat make it look more realistic(if it really looks like chrome). Comments anyone.

Thanks. I didn`t think it would be worth the time or money.I`ve seen a video of the process you mentioned. They did a motorcyle helmet. It was neat how it was sprayed on. It just looked wet while it was being applied,then just as quick as you can blink...BAM...it turned chrome. I`ll bet it ain`t cheap.
