Does anyone know where or if you can get plastic chromed in NZ?Ive got some rearview mirrors that need to be shinny

I've heard that there is some plating shop near lancaster park that do it. But they say the guy can talk for hours

Is that Ross at Plating Solutions that you are talking about Bart?? If it is you are right, shannon there is into turbos and stuff

I think I read about them at oldschool. That guy plated some alluminuim for my dad, and he said the same aabout the guy being a mad talker.

theirs a guy on trade em that does fiberglass bumpers etc for dattos and escorts etc - if you type in escort fiberglass should bring it up - he has chromed fiberglass which i thought was amazingly epic.

Yes Plating solutions is the place! We only work with metal so cant help you out John!

Thanks guys.I'll put a day aside to go and see them!

plating solutions are on talfourd street which is off falsgrave street. falsgrave auto parts are on corner.

And he owns a Datsun Forklift

Was in at plating solutions on friday talking to Ross.

Apparently its not called plastic chroming but metalisation of plastic???

There are only 2 plants in Chch for doing this and he has them both. He currently doesn't have the chemicals to be able to do it at the moment. Apparently the manufacturers keep changing them so he is waiting for them to settle down a bit and get it right before he gets anymore.

He said there is a couple of places in auckland that do some sort of vacuum process
