Done it.

Thanks for the help in posting a pic.

BTW, Mamod is the brand name of an old steam-powered toy so it's not oversize.. Always wanted one but they were expensive back then. Remember my neighbour had one, fascinating to watch.. It is indeed as HHTel says, a “model” vintage car, something like an open top Rolls Royce. I had it as a Birthda...

What a great model, wish I had one of those when I was a kid, it was probably a modern car when I was a kid.

Hi again VincentD, one of my main concerns about having the job done elsewhere is if the preparation would be done properly, having lived here for 12 years and dealt with dozens of so called "PROFESSIONALS" I have absolutely no confidence in getting a quality job done. I owned and ran a Bo...

Thanks for your comments VincentD, I’m aware of what is involved in doing chrome plating and all the chemicals necessary to do it. When I’m finished with the chemicals they will be disposed of responsibly. I wish to re-chrome 30 bar stools that are only 1 year old and already showing signs of rust, ...

Any of you guys out there clued up on nickel and chrome plating? I want to set up a small chroming plant and it would be good to have some help and advice from somebody who knows what they are doing instead of having to teach myself from scratch. Anybody know and have a bit of spare time? Cheers.
