Model Maker Chrome

[djunod]

This is a question for any of you model makers out there... I recently used Alclad chrome paint and am astounded at how great it turned out. Still, being the "perfectionist" that I am, I would like to be able to do "real" chrome on plastic. Does anybody know how the model manufacturers do it? I think I narrowed it down to something about "vapor coating". Any pointers (other then using the rub-on sheet chrome) would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
