SPECIALIST VEHICLE CARE
Car dechroming, also known as chrome delete, involves changing the appearance of chrome or bright exterior trim, most commonly to black.
It can be applied to individual details or several components to create a more consistent appearance across the vehicle.
Depending on the component, the work may involve wrapping or applying a suitable coating.
THE DOMAIN DOMAIN STANDARD
Chrome window surrounds and decorative trims can be treated to complement the vehicle’s existing paintwork and styling.
The finish is selected to suit the component, the vehicle’s existing styling and your preferences.
Grilles, badges and selected exterior details can be treated to achieve a darker finish.
The appropriate method depends on the component’s shape, material and condition.
SUVs and 4WDs often have prominent chrome features, including roof rails, grille surrounds and exterior trims.
Treating selected components can give the vehicle a more uniform appearance without changing its underlying bodywork.
WRAPS AND COATINGS
Domain Domain uses wraps and coatings for blackout and dechroming work.
Wrapping involves applying a specialist film to suitable exterior components to change their visible finish.
Coatings can also be used to change the appearance of suitable components. The preparation and application method depends on the surface being treated.
Jean-Pierre assesses the surfaces and discusses the available options before recommending a treatment. The chosen method must be suitable for the component and the finish required.
Proper surface preparation and careful application are particularly important around narrow trims, corners and detailed components.
Jean-Pierre carries out the work with care for the surrounding surfaces, aiming for a clean finish that sits naturally with the vehicle’s existing design.
