Done. Call or email anytime. Email me Wednesday I'll reply with some photos of the work I do. Sadly I can't post publicly due to proprietary agreements with the auto manufactures.

Could you describe the process of applying this finish a bit. What's the equipment required, etc etc. What I have read about it looks rather costly to get set up. Maybe I am wrong. Thanks Mark S |
about 10k a machine i have 3 machines that spray the chemicals. once set up it is pretty inexpensive. normal 1.1 1.3 spray gun for the basecoat proccess.
2k primer finished in 1000 or 1200 grit spray a special basecoat that dries very smooth and shiny after 24 hours dry time you have to torch it with propane torch and pray you dont bubble it lol then a bunch of chemicals in a machine get sprayed on rinsed off and cleared. thats the short version. it is absolutely the most difficult and unforgiving finish i have ever done. you tube makes it look all easy and simple but i assure you it is not. i could write pages of the process but that the main stuff there. i use Cosmichrome if you want to look up more Experienced Trained Certified

It almost sounds like electroplating without the tanks. How do you dispose of any over spray that gets on the ground? I am kind of interested in the process. The finished product is awesome. Thanks Mark S |
i use a a table with some modified drains that go into a bucket and pout that into a 555gal drum with evap bands on it and evap everything

a guy I work with had some rare aluminum wheels done in s.ca. don't remember the co. but they looked flawless, absolutely better than chrome. I couldn't' believe it.

how well would this spray chrome work on aluminum wheels regarding oxidation?
I know even chrome isn't perfect. I wouldn't mind getting you to do some 3 piece aluminum wheel faces. Refinishing aluminum wheels in dipped chrome seems prohibitively expensive locally. ($800/wheel, which is the same as new high end wheels anyways if your not going for a restoration) HellaFab.ca
