this thread doesnt tell me anything about getting the paint to stick to that type of plastic roll cage

also can this type of plastic be dipped in chrome like how they do chrome plating for reg plastics

You need to read next time.

This thread is about SpazStix. The thread you linked to is my thread about the Duratrax chrome paint that never got released.

best bet would be to have an aluminum replica made then polish the hell out of it.
you will never get paint to stick to that plastic and be durable. it'll stick for pictures or a shelf queen.
