Has anyone used a chrome paint from a spray can they have been impressed with? Please don't say Eastwood.

I just used a can of Dupli-Color Chrome I picked up at O'Reillys to paint some plastic trim on my brother's 66 Charger.  You can tell the difference when next to real chrome, but I felt that it came out very well.  Just be very careful with the multiple light coats.  I think I ended up spraying 4 or 5 coats.

Hopefully this can give you an idea on the dupli color products. I took this picture at SEMA last year. They painted the entire car with their chrome series paint.

They never look the same after you have to clean them.
