Eastwood Acrylic Silver Cad Lacquer Paint Recover Aerosol 12 oz

Application Tips

The Silver Cad Aerosol duplicates the bright cadmium plating used on many cars from the 50's on. This Eastwood Exclusive is a one step process that saves time and money over actual plating costs. Silver Cad is an acrylic lacquer, covers 6 sq ft, and withstands up to 250 degrees F. Apply to clean bare metal surfaces, or over our Self Etch Primer (16014 Z) for greater durability. For a dull cad look, try our Aluma Blast Aerosol (10109 Z).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from SILVER CAD Replication Coating I purchased one can a few months ago and sprayed my Classic Chevy gas tank after I sand blasted it. The outcome was superb. The paint sprayed evenly and consistent during the application. I was so happy that I purchased 3 more cans for other pieces that I want to enhance on the Chevy. DT Bowen

Questions & Answers

I am curious the resistance to this paint peeling with gasoline direct contact. Will this coating survive this environment? It’s going in the fuel cap of a motorcycle. Thank you. 

Asked by: Nnm1
This coating does not really offer fluid resistance. It would be best to top coat this with the 2k Gloss Clear found here: https://www.eastwood.com/eastwood-s-2k-aerospraytm-high-gloss-matte-clear.html

I am restoring a 1935 Indian motorcycle and am looking for a product to duplicate the cad plating that was done on many of the smaller parts. Chrome paint is too shiny, aluminum paint is too dull. Will your Cad paint have that satin slightly gloss finish 

Asked by: Gabor
Silver Cad has a 40-50% gloss level, so I believe it should give a finish similar to what you are looking for. As you work on your Indian, we'd love to see some pictures of it.

What do you recomend for a '65 Bonneville grill? The chome fronts on these are fine. The interiors seem to be a matt grey or matt aluminum type paint over the chrome. It is these sections that I want to keep looking as original as possible. Thanks.

Asked by: Pinball7
The Aluma Blast would probably be your best option for this application: https://www.eastwood.com/ew-aluma-blast-paint-aerosol-12-oz.html

I'm working on some original seat frames out of a second gen Camaro. They're pretty rusty, would the cadmium, detail gray, or clear zinc paint be my best bet for an original look?

Asked by: Lyndmc
After you treat the seat frame with Rust Enacapsulator our Detail paints are an excellent way to revive those original looks.
