Chrome Dipping?

[GuestyR33]

hey peoples

Does anyone know where i can get some chrome dipping done

in the eastern suburbs of vic.

Was hoping to have a couple things done.

Mainly my greddy plenum.

Has anyone had stuff done before?

Was curious of the costs and times etc involved?

cheers everyone.

Greddy plenum is alloy, you will need to get it polished not chrome dipped.

Have ya got his details?

Im only in ferntree gully so it's like the next suburb over.

With polishing do i have to maintain it every so often or anything?

any idea on costs?

you would be looking between 150 - 200

you would need to maintain it once every few months if you want it to look good.

Often wondered if after getting something pro polished wether it would be an advantage to spray it with totaly clear plastic circuit PCBoard spray that is fairly hardy stuff and pretty cheap. Should stop the polish from dulling off over time I would think.

Anyone tried this?

Have a look in the phone book under electro platers. They can zinc/chrome/cadmium plate most things.
