Chrome Plating of die cast metel AKA as"Pot metal"

[David N.]

I did a search in the archives but, came up without a good result. Anyone know of a good chrome plating shop still doing the die cast parts?

Thanks a million in advance for your help!!

David -

"FiniFinish" on Mound Road in Warren still does that kind of work, but they're very expen$ive; they do a lot of Meadow Brook Concours-level work.

Streamwood Plating Co. 1545 Brandy Pkwy. Streamwood, Il. (630)830-6363. they do nice work, a little $$$, but what's not on Vette.

Advanced Plating in Nashville, TN and Lemon Grove Plating in Lemon Grove, CA both do excellent work.

I echo Dick's endorsement of Advanced Plating. I have inspected some of their show chrome work and the results are phenominal.

Thanks to all who have responded, I have forwarded the information to my brother whose friend is looking for a good source for vintage T'bird rework.
Thanks again,

One other comment about die cast plating. The platers that do the best work ain't cheap. If you have to ask how much it costs to do the work, you probably cannot afford it.
