I think it will be expensive if it detached since you need to clip each part of the kit to make it work...

chrome finish is possible

Waa... Your method is ?

My formula is for metal, like this:
1st spray metallic black, then spray metallic silver .
Lastly chrome coat.

Hmm... The similar method to paint rims.
Ok

alternatively you can use chrome powder rub on gloss black painted kit
not sure you can find at hobby shop easily

Hmm IMHO still does not look like the chrome-plated kits (example MG Phenex: http://dalong.net/review/mg/m178/m178_p.htm ). Chrome-plated do have mirror-like reflection

Yeah, that looks more like a buffed silver

Chrome powder or compound hard to find. Even for real car use
Must order from other country, here tada.

So I usually do the hard way, spray metallic black as base then spray very light metallic silver as coat. When half dry use track cloth to wipe the surface. More you wipe more shinny chrome.

And another alternatively way : is using Mr.DIY chrome spray paint. But not as good as airbrush and compounds la.

wow good to know that (the metallic black + silver method) Does it work if I use spray can?

You really dig deep into RG huh One thing I don't like about RG is my fingers will hurt after each build

Actually, I don't dig RG. So far all my kits are MGs, wanted to get exclusive and limited stuffs. Hence the RGs and HGs. Some of them were free actually.

lol I did say chrome finish so obviously not 100% same as chrome plated kit, like a certain paint marked as "chrome", you dont expect mirror finishing like chrome plated kit right? but still have same glossiness like chrome finish should be

plus chrome plated is ugly anyway + fingerprint magnet
I would use flat coat on my chrome plated kit if I buy one like someone here did with HGUC Delta Gundam

Spray can for black base can la. But for silver must be airbrush. Cuz need to control the paint.

Honestly to say, I more prefer flat coat than chrome. Chrome look like fake toy.

Depends, chrome is nice especially on beam rifle, physical bladed swords and axes

Astray red frame's katana. That must be chrome.

looks like the pilot of miss sazabi is...
