Chrome plate going rate?
Parkesst5:
There is plenty of prep required with this. To be honest I would be dubious of just how good a finish anyone would get.
I suppose it is a gamble but can't bring myself to powder it!

Dave will examine it first to see if it's good enough to chrome.

They used to chrome for Curtis and Rickman and the same staff are still there today.
They understand BMX and respect stamping, welds etc. I'd wholeheartedly recommend them :daumenhoch:

I have GT Pro Bars that are 'Stamped'...
Glad to hear this, as i want them re chromed...
May well use them...Once i get the other bits n bobs i require...
Can i ask what difference 'Super Chroming' has to normal Chroming...
I've heard the terminology on here before...

Show chrome means that the surface underneath has been polished before nickel then chrome, this surface can't be too polished because the plate needs to attach to it.
