One of us is misunderstanding something. PP is not satisfactory for chrome plating baths.

Hi Mohammad,

Nbg. Don't! What Ted says is correct. Go and see the archives # 8169, please.

Where PP will initially fail is at the welds. Who ever suggested PP for chrome is leading you up the garden path!

Just go on the internet and hit your favorite site ... with words like 'what materials for chrome' or 'plastics for chrome' and you should get some good answers.

Sorry! Finishing.com is temporarily Read-Only.
Ted Mooney is retiring but I have several offers to take it over.
We're working hard to make sure we find it the best new home.
