Need chrome dipping (not electroplating) equipment

November 17, 2008

looking for a supplier of chrome dipping equipment not the plating type, I live in Canada so a Canadian distributor would be nice but I also purchase a lot of my antique auto parts from the States, just cost us more with the exchange n duty, any help would be greatly appreciated, not finding much on the net.

Hi, Kevin. Sorry, but there is no such thing. Chrome is applied solely by electroplating. You can, however, apply shiny, spray-on "chrome-look" paint. Please see our "Introduction to Chrome Plating".
