Painting over Chrome?
Hi,

I am looking for some 5" oval bars and the ones I keep seeing are all chrome. I want black or DSG.

Is it possible to scuff and paint then seal these bars or does the chrome process make it impossible?

Thanks!

Yeah, you have to get it sandblasted then painted, if you want it to last.

Why not just hold out for a set of black boards? Will be much cheaper!
