[QUOTE="cj428mach, post: 16048570, member: 142081"] Not even close to the same. A good chrome job can be heavily abused and clean up in minutes. I had chrome wheels on my old Fbody daily and I could let them go for months in the harshest of weather with out a cleaning. 5 mins per wheel with #00 fine steel wool and they looked like new. I'd prefer real chrome but it is expensive as the surface must be polished before chroming to have that super slick finish. Chroming is becoming a hazardous process and fewer and fewer people do it anymore, but spray chromes are becoming very popular. Do some research in the street rod/hot rod communities, every car had chrome on them back in the day and spray chrome has become the solution for lots of people. I believe some of the processes produces results that are very difficult to distinguish from the real chrome. [/QUOTE]
