Mr Smith 0 Posted February 18, 2003 Hi, Wondering about plating of some frog parts. Mainly the chassis. I've noticed a few plated chassis' in peoples showrooms, whats the story? Any one in Australia dealt with this? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hotgolf 0 Posted February 18, 2003 Hi, you need to have the original part copper plated first then chrome plate ontop, as the chrome will adere to the copper but not the plastic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
limas_mtb 0 Posted February 18, 2003 Yeah, until you hit a rock or make a jump & the chassis flexes... ...Then, you'll have chrome corn-flakes for breakfast[][][] Seriously, don't do it my friend: Looks great when new, horrible after a few uses!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Manuspain 0 Posted February 19, 2003 Hi Some years ago, a friend of mine working in a perfume plastic bottles industry and plated me some rims and roll bars. The result was perfect and durable. Manuspain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
