As said before the best Chrome is the Triple Plate Copper,Nickel,Chrome like in the old days. The Nickle, Nickle, Chrome does not get it as you will see every polish mark they made. Copper hides the scratches they make when polishing.The best Chrome Platers use the Copper under base as you can build up the copper to fill in the scratches by putting back into the Copper solution then buffing again. This is why the old style plating cost a little more but twice the deepness in the shine.
Buyer be where on N.N.C.parts. Have some plater do the nickle nickle chrome only then have a part done in copper nickle chrome compare them you will see a big difference in shine and depth. If your parts are in good shape take them to the shop and the shop will tell you if they will come out ok or not. They can tell right away if they are a good shop as their repatation is on the line if they do a bad job. You know what one bad job can cost them if the word would gets out.
