Dechroming, is a process of covering a vehicle’s chrome trim with a liquid wrap. This is a popular customisation option for car enthusiasts who want to achieve a more modern or sleek look.
So what does it involve:
Purpose:
Achieve a modern or sleek aesthetic by replacing the shiny chrome with a different finish, typically matte black but also including gloss black, carbon fiber, or other colors.
Protect the original chrome from scratches, fingerprints, or sun damage.
Process:
We use specialist liquid spray designed for car exteriors. These wraps are typically made to be durable, weatherproof, and easy to apply.
The Badge and trims can be removed or sprayed in situ, this is dependant on the vehicle. The badges and trims and carefully masked so no overspray is left on other areas of the vehicle.
Here are some additional things to consider:
Benefits: In addition to the aesthetic improvements, dechroming can also offer some practical benefits like protecting the chrome and potentially reducing heat absorption on certain exterior parts during hot weather.
DIY vs. Professional: While DIY kits are available, it’s generally recommended to leave it to experienced professionals to ensure a flawless and long-lasting finish.
Cost: The cost of dechroming varies depending on the size and complexity of the job, but it’s typically less expensive than repainting the chrome parts.
