How long does it take?

The time the process takes depends on 3 main factors: Where you're shipping from (local or international) the condition of the part you're having plated (parts in good repair require less pre-processing), and finally our current workload. Generally, it takes about 6 to 8 weeks.

How much does it cost?

Cost of chroming or electro-plating varies with several different factors. Primarily these are things such as the condition of the part to be processed (nicks, scratches, blemishes), the type of metal, (aluminum, iron) and the finished product desired (Chrome, gold, black gold).
