Chrome Plating Systems for Show Chrome

We offer hobby kits for non commercial use to commercial use hobby kits called "C" kits, which are meant for machine shops with very small budgets.   We also offer semi-commercial Hybrid kits that are 50% commercial and 50% non commercial.  Lastly, we offer fully commercial systems that offer the best production output in a very durable system package.  Commercial system are the easiest types of system to operate for beginners and offer custom tailoring to customer's needs.  Commercial chrome plating systems can range from table top mini systems to full blown bumper and wheel electroplating systems with hoist and superstructure.  They are the best of all tank systems but they also come with the highest price.  A commercial use version of hobby kit )C Kit) is on the left while a comparable commercial system is on the right.

   With a little practice, you'll be able to achieve a 'Show Chrome' finish as good or better than any commercial chrome shop.  These kits & systems come with easy to understand how-to book that contains tons of illustrations.   With our kits, we offer strong technical support from a staff that were actual electroplaters, so you are getting advice from a person that had spent many years working behind a chrome plating tank.  Our prices are competitive with anyone.  Also note how ALL of our studio kits come with rectangular tanks.  We find that rectangular tanks are much more versatile than a cylindrical tank of the same size.  Look at pictures of any plating shop, you will find that almost ALL of the tanks in this industry are rectangular or square.  Obviously, there is a reason for this.  They are much easier to work with when you are dealing with parts when dealing with a variety of racking and parts.  Do not be fooled by term "non-commercial", our non-commercial kits produce a 100% commercial result on your parts.  You do not have to provide your own "low quality" battery acid, we provide ALL of your chemical needs for you with all lab grade chemicals.  System does not come with a plating rectifier or a chemical mixing machine because one size does not fit all but they can be added at a low cost, or you can provide one yourself by buying on Amazon or eBay or at local electronic shop.
