PChrome™ vs. Chrome plating

Chrome Plating is time consuming, labor intensive and involves heating dangerous chemicals to high temperatures–
PChrome™ is laid on with a series of spray finishes. It achieves a beautiful reflective finish that looks every bit as good as traditional chrome plating. Plus PChrome™ requires no special equipment or skill level.

You can achieve a chrome-like surface with PChrome™ on a variety of substrates: glass, plastic, metal or wood. Traditional chrome plating does not form a stable bond with any substrate but nickel. As for ease of PChrome™ finishing … untrained employees with little or no professional spray experience were able to achieve a blemish-free surface after just a few practice runs.

“To achieve a finish that simulates traditional chrome with PChrome™ spray products requires attention to mix details and instructions on technique and timing. Most people can be self taught with a few practice runs.”

Traditional chrome plating is expensive and complicated, and achieving a consistent professional finish can be difficult. PChrome™on the other hand, is simple:

Sulfuric acid - not required
Chromic acid crystals - not required
Heated acid bath - not required
Rubber safety suit - not required
Gas mask - not required

As for environmental or health hazards, PChrome™ creates no more risk than the average spray paint that you buy at any hardware store. Naturally, we recommend you wear a protective mask when applying PChrome™ coatings, but that should do it.
Depending upon size and shape, a number of articles can be sprayed at the same time. Simply attach them firmly to a rack or spindle and make sure surfaces to be PChrome™ finished are fully accessible to the spray.
