How to remove the chrome trim from our car

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Body

In this video, the two friendly youtubers teach us how to remove the chrome from our car simply by wrapping it with a simple system suitable even for beginners. What we need is a can of removable spray film paint (so if we don't like it we can remove it): we can find it on Amazon with the code B07TZQ3X9Q at the price of 20.95 euros, free delivery. First, we need to degrease the chrome that we need to paint, with alcohol (or a degreaser); then we clean well and wrap the area around the one to be painted, apply a very light first coat, then when it is dry a second, a third and finally a fourth, spraying closer each time. Let the last coat dry for at least thirty minutes. Don't worry if there are painted body parts, as you will easily remove them. If you can paint removable parts, even better, you will do it even more easily, but always following the steps indicated.
