Base coat is a 2K High Gloss Black, it's applied over a 2K Primer, then left for 48 hours before doing the Hydrochrome. Chemicals A+B only last 2 days once prepared in my experience. Activator is good to use until it starts to go yellow, once it goes yellow colour, then don't use it, mix up new batch otherwise you'll get yellowing on your chrome piece.

When you apply the clear coat / top coat, always do a mist coat first, never do a normal one. The mis coat makes the silver look dull and lost the shine (this is normal), then one heavy coat after 15 mins from the first mist coat, then the mirror shine comes back straight away, your done. ... Also, make sure you have a couple of drops of voilet dye in your clear coat so the silver/chrome doesn't turn yellow.
