Great Day! How can I get this service??
How do you go finding the cost?
Me gusta ese tipo de trabajo para hacerle a los parachoques de mi auto en acero inoxidable👍💥
Background music is waste
There's nothing more satisfying than seeing skilled people at their craft and making old things new again!
beautiful work my friends, hopefully your trade never dies
Do you need a smoke suppressor for chrome solution?
That is really good American work! Wonderful men!
This lame vide explains nothing about chrome plating.
shitty music is shitty.
superb job ❤
How much for two bumpers ?
What if I put my hand in there?
The copper looked cool too!
I wonder if we can do a copper plate and cover it with a protecting layer so it doesn't go green, copper gives me a hard on
Back when things were easy to fix
Turn the shitty music off.
Chrome ABSOLUTELY 💯 %ART 🎨
How do I get the chance of getting the same Chrome Machinery
How do I get the latest version for some reason?
Niiiiice👍🏽🤩
I used to do this back in the day, mostly the over riders, our best jobs to do were for Triumph Heralds riders,
would be great if they explained the process!!
Shiddd this must be some expensive work. No wonder anything chrome plated usually costs a pretty penny.
😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
where are they located and how much does it cost to chrome a bumper
What’s your contact info?
Очень интересно.Лайк.
Wow a lot of work than I thought
LOL! I was thinking of chrome plating something at home and then I watched this video and said nevermind.
Do you chrome plate motorcycle reems ? About 20 cm wide
Awesome video!
Hi you can chome engine parts?
Would you guys be able to chrome a lightsaber hilt?
satisfiying
Hi great video. Question: How do I clean out bolt holes after chroming ? Seems to be a yellow residue left behind making some bolts hard to screw in. I already broke one bolt. I don't have tap set and I think just need to get the gunk out. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks.
a thread cutter is easiest option
Go Bulls
This would have been so much better without the music and with narration explaining what was being done and why.
Awesome.
So chrome is processed copper?
No, there are chemical reasons one metal can or can’t be plated directly onto another. I don’t understand why to be honest, but I’ve seen it before. First, you strip back to clean, bare steel. Any scratches, dents, or imperfections need to be fixed at this stage or they will “bleed through” into the others, and look terrible. This includes any dirt, grease, or oils from your hands - so you need gloves, degreaser, and maybe a solvent like acetone or methylene chloride. Next, you plate copper on top of the steel. Somebody else mentioned using a basic and man acidic bath for the copper plating. Plating probably takes a while to apply a solid coating, which then must be polished and inspected for any new or missed imperfections. Chrome won’t plate onto copper, so you apply a nickel plate over it. This would need to be inspected, cleaned, and probably polished too. Finally the chrome plating is applied. My understanding is this involves “hexavalent chromium” Cr(IV) which is both toxic and carcinogenic. Almost everything involving chromium - from stainless steel to dyes uses this. Chrome will plate onto nickel, which is the last stage before any final polishing. I’d like to be able to do this for small parts at home, but between the strong acids, bases, chromium (IV), and fumes/waste products - it doesn’t seem very neighborly. In the olden days, the waste was just dumped in the trash or rivers - where it became someone else’s problem. The EPA doesn’t have a permissible standard, possibly due to politics. California set a standard for drinking water of 10 parts per billion in drinking water. If you dropped an aspirin-sized tablet of Cr(IV) into 8,500 gallons of water it would not meet the CA standard for drinking water. FYI, not a chemist, never been in the industry - just curious about it.
How to study the plating process? I am in India
Why is it that the first plating appears to be copper onto the steel ? All the books say you can't plate copper onto steel ? Or did I miss something.
Yes they first do alkaline copper afterthat acid coppet
how much to chrome the front and back bumpers for a 1967 VW bug, with a little rust inside?

When they ask…. “Why does it cost so much…. I just need it re-chromed” Just show them this video. And yeah, really beautiful work by some very skilled craftsmen.
Rechroming shouldn't cost very much. Anyone with a large enough tub can chrome. The fabrication and body-work take skill.
@@DrSlobGoblin straightening those bumpers is a skill that’s hard to come by, at least someone who’s efficient & consistent.
This isn't just rechroming.
This is called 'triple chrome plating.' @@derbigpr500
This is beyond chrome plating... The first minute and half is body repair and alterations.
I want a.1941 flying lady hood ornament to put on a.1979 Cadillac coupe deville
Hi there is a guy selling a brand new one from Gem they dont make them anymore its hard to find a good one let alone a Brand New one omg Good luck
Is layering copper, zinc, then chrome?
Copper nickel chrome
Is there any kind of filler to repair a dent which cant be repaired in other way before chrome plating? Some brazing ?
Fill it with weld
Melted lead fishing weights can fill dents.
Nice to know there is a shop for this so close by the North Country
What's with the Sonic the Hedgehog music?
