Default I Can Do Gold Plating....

In case any of you want/need palting done, I used to do MOST of the Toyota's in Southeast Georgia.... I have done custom Motorcycles, Boats, Street Rods, Lexus, and I made a lot of money in the past, but I have been inactive for almost 3 years, I am either going to sell my equipment or start using it again.....
If any of you are interested, I will give members a great price, and I can also do Silver, Nickel, Brass, Copper, Platinum, and Chrome, and the Gold I use is true 24kt, not that "Brassy" looking crap you see on a lot of cars running around....My plating will last 5-7 years with proper care, and I will guarantee that every piece I do is PERFECT or it won't leave here till it is...If I can't plate a piece, NO CHARGE.

Now, this is a portable Electro-plate process, and will NOT work on Aluminum (BUMMER), but if you have polished steel, chrome, or any other bright metal that will attract a magnet and/or conduct electricity, I can make it SHINE!

If you have Chrome that is DISCOLORED, but not peeling or pitted, I can bring it back from the dead in most cases.

I can usually give an accurate quote by email or phone, so don't hesitate to call me or email me if you think you might have a piece to do...for example, just FYI, A Toyota emblem, like on the trunk lid, I would charge general public $45.00 to do, but my dealer cost was $25.00, YOU would get my best price, and this can give you a comparison.

I can also do coins, jewlery, faltware, Faucets, and just about anything you want to plate, but remember, this won't work on aluminum, and I recommend Tank Plating for that.

I don't do this commercially anymore and will only do it for members and friends, so give me a shout any time!

If I find no interest from members, I will sell my equipment so that someone else can make a lot of money......Reasonable offers around $2500.00 WILL be entertained.

Thanks All!

So you are doing brush plating? I used to fool around with silver but never put the time necessary to get it "right". Ric
