Hydrochrome spray chrome system

The company notes that the mini kit is not appropriate for exterior uses or automobiles. The company offers a larger kit called the Hydrochrome Extreme system as well. It is more durable and is designed for exterior uses, areas with heavy traffic and automobiles. People will need to purchase a dual-nozzled spray gun to use the larger kit.

Differences in Silver Solutions

The concentration of silver and the quality of raw materials used to manufacture the S solutions are critical. The formulation know-how and the tight manufacturing controls we bring with over 80 years of silver making history give our customers unprecedented quality and performance.

Equally important is the freshness of the solutions. Both the S and the R solutions have a relatively short shelf life. It is the nature of the chemistry that changes will occur as the product sits on the shelf. PChrome solutions are made daily and rarely sit in our warehouse for more than a few days.

Most of our competitors are buying their solutions in bulk from outside the US. PChrome comes to you a few days old while others are selling product that has sat in warehouses and ships often for months. Freshness counts when you are looking for brilliance.
