Chrome plating in Colorado
Any recommendations? I tried AJAX and he doesn't do pot-metal.

Re: Chrome plating in Colorado
Pot metal or zinc die castings take a plater with a lot of experience. It's hard to deplate, hard to repair, and hard to polish without damaging the original profile of the part. It takes a real craftsman to be able to take on the zinc die cast metals. I've purchased replated castings from flea-pay that were OK for a driver car but didn't pass inspection for the type of restoration that the original owner wanted. With EPA regs what they are now, it's hard to find platers that do this type of work and when you do, they will be high end on the price. You may have to settle for where ever you can find a recommended shop.

Re: Chrome plating in Colorado
I used Northwest Chrome in New Plymouth, Idaho to replate both my bumpers. They did exactly what they said they would do with no exceptions. I would use them again.
