BestyBlue77 Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 Hey gang! I just wanted to throw up a quick post about this awesome product that I found to freshen up the Chrome trim details on the dash and interior of my Datsun B210. It's called Molotow Liquid Chrome Pen. It was 12 bucks at Hobby Lobby and I know they sell them on the interweb as well, so if you can find it cheaper, do it! This product works like a charm! It truly is a liquid chrome pen. It goes on really smooth, it's super easy to use, and they have several different sizes available. Here's a little video I made for YouTube. Check it out, and see what you think. 3 Quote Link to comment

Does it need to be top coated to last more than a week ? Quote Link to comment
sebpv Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 doesnt look any more chromy than a regular silver marker. My guess is you need to clear over otherwise the ink would eventually dissappear. 1 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 I have as thin strips on my door trim that peeled off, not much left. As it doesn't get much touching it might work well there. Certainly would be easier to put on using a pen 1 Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted January 19, 2018 Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 Just bought it, $11 on amazon. 1 Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 Just bought it, $11 on amazon. This just arrived. I tested it out and it's fantastic!! WAY better than a silver Sharpie.. which is what I used previously on parts of my interior.. will be applying this once the weather warms up a bit! 1 Quote Link to comment
FrankRizzo Posted January 24, 2018 Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 I used a silver paint pen from Home Depot , found it in the paint aisle. Clearly not as shiny, but i was able to highlight the "tuning" and other letters. Probably give this a try! Quote Link to comment
BestyBlue77 Posted February 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 Does it need to be top coated to last more than a week ? No it does not need to be top coated. It's super durable & thick. Let it fully dry for a few days & it's just as good as the original if not a bit more like chrome. Quote Link to comment

They have a 1mm size as well for minute detail. I just used a 2mm with a steady hand & did my radio letting as well. Nice job, by the way! Quote Link to comment

My guess is you need to clear over otherwise the ink would eventually dissappear. This is far superior to a silver sharpie, which would wear off in no time & can be removed with rubbing alcohol. No kidding in person it really looks chrome. The finish is nice & thick & very durable. Just be sure to let it fully dry/cure for a few days. Quote Link to comment

Just need to be able to let it sit & dry for a few days, but trust me, once this fully cures it's on there for a long time! Quote Link to comment
sebpv Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 Can I see pictures? I would look different than a video. Thx Quote Link to comment
