-----Chrome-like sputtering on aluminum alloy wheels
2006
Dear Sirs,
I need help to select a sputtering system for aluminum alloy wheel that will give shiny effect like chrome and good bonding.
Please help.
Thanks

Why don't you plate real chrome on your alloy wheel?
Appearance , adhesion and corrosion resistance of real chrome are better than sputtering. From the case of two wheel brands in Malaysia
, both had produced chrome-like colour with sputtering system.
They were claimed from customer very much because sputtering layer peeled from wheel.
Nowadays these two companies have only real chrome wheel for selling
.

If sputtering is processed in the right way, with the whole right procedure of preparation and finishing, is much better in terms of resistance than electroplating; I can give more information.
