If painting logos chrome should that be painted before my base coat. Colors using are black, white, purple, chrome. Thanks in advance"thumbsup"
 
With the mirror chrome, it's best to spray it last or when you've reached a piont where your not pealing up any masking material or tape around the edges of the chrome area. Chrome will peal up as you pull off masking material. So the last thing you would want to do is paint the chrome first.
After you've sprayed the chrome and backed it with black and applied the sealer, the chrome rarely comes off, chips, peals etc. I use faskote sealer.
I paint everything first, including the main base color, then the chrome then I back the entire body with black and then apply the sealer.
regards
caci
