In order to get the best possible finish, you need to understand the type of metal you have, and adjust your process accordingly. Metals such as stainless steel undergo very different processes to say zinc diecast.

At Precision Plating, we have the capability to plate the following metals:

For Example chrome plating a part will include the following processes:

Specifications

If you don’t have a plating specification, please advise us what application your part will be used for. We can then determine what will suit the part best. Different applications require different plating specifications. An exterior automotive grille generally requires a duplex nickel coating compared to an interior cabinet handle.

The more information you can provide us, the better the result, and the more accurate your quotation will be.
