painting question

[RUSTY XL-5]

I want to spray some words on a body with Spaztix mirror chrome (oil based). I use a Parma water based paints for all my bodies (love the ease of clean up). I want to spray the Spaztix first but was wondering what preparation would be required to allow the water based Parma paints stick?


Thanks!

The Mirror chrome is laquer based(I beleive) and will dry very quickly. Just be safe and let it dry for a couple hours and just spray over it with no further prep needed. DO NOT scratch/sand where you plan on spraying the chrome, it will show sanding lines through and will have a brushed aluminum look rather than chrome.
