Thanks again guys.

so,

1. I sanded down the whole statue with very fine grit sandpaper to make surface even more smooth

2. use and spray whole staatue (minus base):

use several light coats

3. use this in several light coats until desired chrome effect (dont overdue it!)



4. Use a cotton cloth and buff it shiny

5. repaint black areas with Tamija semi gloss black

DONE

..but still im not keeping her if anyone interested ..shes on ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/362572668277

To be fair no sw characters last long in a movie with so many characters. Hopefully Disney will make a spin off on this character. Imagine a tv series or movie based on her when she was younger and how she became this character. That would draw in so much new fans.

Is there some premium on chrome paint that makes Sideshow's premium format collectibles only able to be painted in bland acrylic meh?
They deserve to be stuck with these in their warehouse forever for releasing this junk.
