Mirror-bright finishes for automotive, marine, and industrial applications. From restoration to production.
Chrome plating remains one of the most sought-after metal finishes for good reason—it delivers brilliant reflectivity, exceptional hardness, and outstanding corrosion resistance. At Quality Plating, we've perfected both decorative chrome and industrial hard chrome processes over our 13+ years in business.
Our chrome plating facility features dedicated lines for decorative work and heavy-build industrial applications. We use only premium-grade chrome solutions and maintain strict bath chemistry control to ensure consistent, high-quality results on every batch. Whether you're restoring a classic car part or plating production components, you can expect the same attention to detail and quality control.
Bright, mirror-like finish typically 0.5-1.0 mils thick. Ideal for automotive trim, motorcycle parts, marine hardware, and architectural elements. Multi-layer nickel-chrome system for maximum corrosion protection.
Heavy-build chrome for wear surfaces, hydraulic rods, piston rings, molds, and machine parts. Build rates up to 5+ mils available. Hardness of 65-70 RC for exceptional wear resistance.
Complete restoration service for pitted, rusted, or damaged chrome parts. Includes chemical stripping, copper buffing, nickel undercoating, and fresh chrome replating. Returns parts to better-than-new condition.
Matte chrome, satin nickel-chrome combinations, and specialty finishes available. We work with you to achieve the exact look and performance requirements for your application.
Pricing is estimates only. Final cost depends on part geometry, surface condition, quantity, and specific requirements. We provide detailed quotes before beginning any work. Volume discounts available for production orders over 50 sq ft.
Every step matters. Here's how we ensure exceptional results.
Every part is inspected upon receipt. We document existing damage, measure critical dimensions, and plan the appropriate preparation process for your specific part condition.
Old chrome, paint, or oxidation is safely removed. Parts undergo multiple cleaning stages including alkaline soak, electrocleaning, and acid activation to ensure a perfectly clean surface.
Decorative chrome requires proper undercoats. We apply copper plate for leveling, then bright nickel for corrosion protection and reflectivity. Each layer is inspected before proceeding.
Parts enter the chrome plating tank with precise current control. We maintain optimal bath temperature and chemistry throughout the plating process for consistent coverage.
Every plated part undergoes visual inspection for coverage, brightness, and adhesion. Critical parts receive thickness testing and documentation as required.
Plated parts are carefully wrapped to prevent scratches during transport. We package according to your requirements and ship via your preferred carrier or local pickup.
