Thanks to everyone, who took me up on my "practice" offer. This is the result,
and has turned out very nice. This is "hard" chrome and not the "spray" chrome,
which is a good thing, one hit from the sun light and it's toast. So again, thank
you...and yes, we are now taking orders!

Looks good, would you chrome gumball machine parts, like the face plate where the coin is placed and the knob that turns the coin?
The face plate is 4" x 4" x 1/2" for example

Man, I wish my chrome looked that nice. Oh wait...It does!!  Pieces look great Eric. For those with any interest, I have attached a before picture for comparison. Looking forward to the day I can change my avatar to show the completed machines. Slowly getting there - one more piece of the puzzle down. |

It's copper, nickel, and a product called Kopy chrome.
Chrome has some problems with the EPA and many
"chrome shops" have closed down because of disposal
issues. The Kopy chrome, is an Eco Friendly product,
with the same benefits as chrome.
