This was my first time spraying a translucent over chrome.. Had some runs on several pieces. Seemed like maybe to much powder

Yes, too much powder will cause you to get the runs.

Did you spray the part hot or cold?

I allways spray Lolly's Hot. Best way to ensure even coverage IMO

I've used green and blue, but did it cold. came out pretty good. Get the powder to look fuzzy, but not furry. It worked for me.
