Got some damage on rime which has a chrome lip. I've repaired some (silver) Porsche rims before, for which I used the Wurth products. Having said that, where can I source 'chrome' colored paint in a spray can ?
Is there some on-line resource ?

Thanks !

 

If your rims have "chrome" lips and not polished it will be hard to match at a consumer / off the shelf level. Chrome plating is technique of electroplating a thin layer of chromium onto a metal object. Hard to reproduce in a spray can.

You can take a look at this site. It doesn't look like it would reproduce the correct sheen as highly polished chrome.

Take a look at some videos of the process of chrome painting. This stuff is cool!

Chrome plate is exactly that "plated", there is not cheap method to replicate actual chrome plate. You'll need to have the wheel broken down, strip the old chrome off chemically, polish and prepare the surface then the plating process begins.
