just remember after you spray your black be sure to buff it, as it tends to fuzz a bit you'll need to buff the fuzz of with a soft cloth , old tshirt or something

when you spray it I get in within 2 iches of the piece and spray it untill it looks real wet almost like its gonna run, then let it sit for a day, buff it and then when spraying your chrom I have my airb about 12" away and I lightly spritz it on, no steady spray as when its on to thick it looks like silver paint
