Absolutely stunning.


Absolutely stunning. Be better than the rest. Have your plastic car parts electroplated. Yes you heard right.. electroplated, not vacuum-metallised. Electrifying right? Enjoy being better than the Jones. Our expert team at Chrometech can help you achieve that shine. I am sure that you would like to know our electroplating plastic chroming process. We are the only company that can electroplate on plastic. We need to seal the item, e.g. if plating on wood, plaster or cloth, the item must be made inert so as not to react with the acidic electroplating solution.. Then the item needs to be made conductive, like conductive ink.(produced in-house)
Next we electroplate via electrolysis. The initial copper coating will be followed up with Nickel, Chrome or Gold.
If you want to know more how to chrome-plate on plastic, feel free to contact us or we would be more than happy to show you around our factory.

After a layer of primer (which helps to smoothe the surface of the object to be chromed and prepare it for further treatment) and a session in the drying oven, a blast in the spray booth sees each component treated with up to four layers of a conductive compound. The important word here is "conductive". This allows the chroming process (which relies on electric current to deposit pure metal onto the surface of the object being chrome-plated) to occur once the object is hung in the plating tanks and a jolt of current sent through it. That's why thick copper wire is used- to deliver the heavy current from the object.

Bronzed cigarette.

Most people who smoke have thought about giving it up.
We at the Bronzing Studio have a solution what to do with your last cigarette.
When you are ready to give it up, smoke only half the cigarette and put it out.
Bring it in to us and we can bronze it for you with a metal of your choice and then engrave it (My last puff, or my last cigarette )and date when you gave it up.
You can either carry the bronzed cigarette with you and when you have the urge, take it out of your pocket, look at it and feel proud of your achievement or you can mount it onto a wooden base and engrave a plaque.
Invite your friends that supported you giving up smoking and there will definitely be a lot to talk about.
