I found a web site that sells do it yourself triple chrome plating systems.
It's like $1,500 for the serious system and they have lower models for about
$450 or so. That includes the chemicals for chrome removal, brass plate,
nickel, and chrome. I know the price is a bit steep.. but not if you
compare the price of replacing all of your chrome. I know that with proper
sanding, brass plating and polishing, you can remove most imperfections in
the parts. It seems the price difference is related to how many gallons of
each chemical you have for the plating process at one time. (more
chemical/higher voltage = larger parts).
I don't know about you guys, but I think having somone who can rechrome the
trim for our cars affordably would be nice.
