    Default chroming / anodizing / powdercoating. where to get it done and how much??

    looking to get the faces of my weds kranze done, but im not really sure what my options are. ideally i want them rechromed, but ive heard its really expensive and hard to do!

    is there any other finishes that could get me a near chrome finish? like anodizing or powder coating? i dont think i can polish as some tiny parts look to have become pitted

    also anyone an idea of prices!

    I've seen some of soda blasts powder coat chrome and it looks good. I don't know what it would be like to keep though, it was just a piece they had on display.

    was wondering about this too, rang alot of places
    rang one place in dublin who told me chrome is baned here?
    so they powdercoat a shadow chrome finish which is closest to chrome
    they said theres a crowd called celtic chrome i think they said that does chrome tho which was a 90% chrome base or something
    i dont know how true the info is they gave me
    seems to be very to get done anyway!
