Title: Re: Newest finds this weekend Post by: bcharlton on July 26, 2013, 01:39:48 pm My chrome guy did the re-nickel. I wanted it replated vs. just polishing because I wanted it to look great for another 100 years. I think it was approx. $500 do it right. He also clear coated it so the finish would hold up better as I have kids using the malt shop on a regular basis getting their finger prints all over it.
