The activator is the crucial factor for optimal adhesion and a uniform, brilliant chrome layer. Our activator solution for spray chrome plating ensures that the surface to be coated is ideally prepared. It chemically activates the surface, allowing the fine silver particles to adhere perfectly in the next step, resulting in a smooth, uniform, and high-gloss chrome finish. Without a high-quality activator, you risk uneven results, blemishes, or poor adhesion – and our special solution prevents exactly that! Why is the activator so important? Spray chrome plating involves several steps. The activator solution has the crucial task of preparing the surface so that the subsequent coating adheres evenly and achieves its full effect. Without this step, defects such as the following can occur: ❌ Spotty or uneven chrome finish ❌ Poor adhesion of the metal layer ❌ Matt or oxidized areas may appear. Our high-quality activator solution ensures that the silver can be applied evenly and that the chrome finish turns out exactly as you envision it: brilliant, mirror-like and perfect! Your advantages with our activator solution: ✅ Perfect preparation for spray chrome plating – Ensures optimal adhesion of the silver particles to the surface. ✅ Even and flawless finish – Prevents stains, dull spots or uneven coatings. ✅ Easy to use & highly economical – Even a small amount is sufficient to achieve the best results. ✅ Compatible with all common spray chrome plating systems – Universally applicable and compatible with most coating systems. ✅ Ideal for various materials – Works on plastic, metal, glass, ceramic and many other surfaces. How is the activator solution applied? The application is extremely simple and can be easily integrated into your spray chrome plating process: 1️⃣ Clean the surface thoroughly – Make sure the workpiece is free of dust and grease. 2️⃣ Spray or apply the activator solution evenly – making sure that the entire surface is wetted. 3️⃣ Leave to work briefly – The activator effect begins within a few seconds. 4️⃣ Rinse with distilled water – The silver application can then begin immediately. High-quality chrome plating begins with proper activation! An impressive chrome finish requires that every step be carried out with the utmost care. Our activator solution for spray chrome plating is an essential component for achieving a uniform, flawless, and long-lasting result. Opt for professional quality for flawless results! If you don't want to compromise on spray chrome plating, then our activator solution is the perfect choice.

Spray Chrome Plating Activator – technical basis for stable metallization

The WT-DIRECT Spray Chrome Plating Activator is one of the most critical steps in the entire spray chrome plating process. It creates the reactive surface on which the metallization with A1/A2/B can proceed evenly, in a controlled manner, and without yellowing . Thanks to its specially formulated composition, the activator ensures defined surface energy, wetting, and reactivity – the prerequisite for mirror-like, professional-quality chrome finishes.

Technical advantages of the WT-DIRECT activator

  • Defined surface activation – sets the required surface energy for metallization.
  • Stable redox conditions – ensures a controlled reaction window of A1/A2/B.
  • Minimizes yellowing and incorrect reactions – reduces typical defects such as grey haze, spots or yellowing .
  • Designed for WT-DIRECT systems – optimized for WT-DIRECT basecoat, A1/A2/B, deionized water & preservative lacquer .
  • Process-reliable and documentable – reproducible activation quality for series production & industry .

In practice, the activator determines whether the metallization process is uniform, complete, and clear – or whether matte patches, islanding, and color shifts occur. The WT-DIRECT activator creates a defined, reactive surface that is precisely matched to the subsequent A1/A2/B components .

In combination with deionized water with very low conductivity , the appropriate WT-DIRECT basecoat system and the correct process parameters (temperature, spray distance, application quantity, dwell time) a stable, technically controllable metallization system for mirror-clear chrome finishes is created.

Especially in professional applications – automotive, interior, design parts, industrial components – the activator secures the basis on which the quality of the entire coating is determined.

Frequently asked questions about the WT-DIRECT Spray Chrome Plating Activator

How can I tell that the activation is correct?

A correctly activated surface exhibits uniform wetting behavior , with no "fish eyes" or dry patches. The metal builds up evenly, without grey or yellowish areas.

Can incorrect activation cause yellowing or stains?

Yes. Under- or over-activation can lead to a yellow tint, a gray haze, or an uneven surface. The WT-DIRECT activator is formulated to provide a stable process window – when used correctly.

Is the activator suitable for plastic, metal and GRP?

Yes. In conjunction with the appropriate WT-DIRECT primer system, the activator can be used on plastic, metal, GRP, wood and painted surfaces .

How important is demineralized water in combination with the activator?

Very important. We recommend using demineralized water with very low conductivity (< 2 µS) to avoid distorting the reaction between the activator and metallization.

Can I also use the activator in third-party systems?

In many cases, yes. Correct spraying technique, contact time, and process control are crucial. The best results are achieved with WT-DIRECT system technology .

Is there technical support available for process optimization?

Yes. WT-DIRECT offers manufacturer support, process analysis and practical recommendations to optimally coordinate activation and metallization.

Conclusion: Professional chrome plating is impossible without the right activator.

The WT-DIRECT Spray Chrome Plating Activator is more than just an intermediate step – it's the technical foundation for clear, mirror-like chrome finishes without any yellowing. Those who cut corners or improvise here risk rejects, customer complaints, and unstable processes.

Rely on the WT-DIRECT activator – for reproducible metallization, stable processes and visible premium quality in every component.
