EDUCATION IS THE KEY: DIPPING WHEELS IN CHROME

HI. my name is Charles. My interest is in what's called by hot rodders as "chroming rims or chrome dipped rims". I am ignorant to the process of doing this.

Currently I am looking for material to educate myself as to the process. if anyone knows any information which would be helpful please feel free to let me know. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND ATTENTION.

"Dig" aluminum wheels? Sorry, Arcilio, no idea what you're speaking of; if it's a typo, sorry but I can't figure it out.
