I am making an attempt to get price ranges for the chrome plating machine. If you can help with this it will be greatly appreciated.

Hello Oscar. A 'chrome plating machine' is not like a Mitsubishi Gallant or a Ginzu Knife. It is a custom-designed factory. It might cost $100,000 or it might cost $10,000,000. You need to describe what you are trying to do and why. It's vaguely possible that a brush plating outfit might do what you need, and that would be less expensive.

Oscar, just wanted to know if you got the answer to your question? I'm trying to get the same information for starting a chrome shop myself.

"A chasm can't be leaped in small steps". Although there may be many enterprises that can be started as home-based businesses, chrome plating isn't one of them. First, it involves too many steps; second, it involves toxic materials; third, it is very highly regulated.

You can start with our Chrome Plating FAQ and get back to us with specific questions.
