Why in the world would anyone want to put paint over chrome which is about the most hard durable coating there is, where conversely repaint is the least durable??? Doesn't make logical sense.
Because the chrome is pitted with rust and chipping off in various spots, which is common on bikes that have sat unused (especially if left outside) for some time and/or improperly stored. :whistle:
I'd strip/blast all of the chrome off and start from scratch with a clean, rust-free and properly prepped surface. The end result after painting will look a LOT smoother and be more durable.
