Hey Alan,
After 3 phone calls from my plater yesterday and today, we have more information. The trim rings that I shipped them have been confirmed to be "flash chromed" over top of stainless steel trim rings. They will polish and remove the scratches and dings and then flash chrome the trim rings. He explained the process steps to me in detail and we are moving forward with my trim rings.

Here is their contact information:

Hello KS69C,
