Hi All,
I need to create a chrome finish to simulate track plates for a bulldozer bed I made for my 3 yr old son. Any ideas?

Go to the Hobby store and find Chrome in the Testors model paint line. It looks real good. Probably not all that great if the kid will be chewing on it though.
Pardon my spelling,

Make sure that your next project is beyond your skill and requires tools you don't have. You won't regret it.
Thanks, I've seen chrome paint in spray can format as well (you know, Krylon). I would guess I can shoot a lacquer topcoat on the unified assembly...
I think Krylon has a kit, with a gloss black and the top coat, which is really thin and is built up. After a few coats, it looks pretty good.
