Parts renovation procedure

Procedure

Renovation process of chrome-plated parts – step by step

01

Visual inspection and sorting

Each part undergoes detailed inspection. We sort them by type of damage and material – precision begins from the very first moment.

02

Archiving and photographing

We document every part. Photographs serve as a reference point – for before-and-after renovation comparison.

Removal of glue and dirt

We remove all residues of glue, silicone or dirt. The surface must be perfectly clean.

De-chroming

The original chrome layer is safely removed. We start with a blank canvas ready for a new life.

Sandblasting

We sandblast the parts, removing corrosion and unevenness – the surface is prepared for perfect renovation.

Levelling, possible welding

We repair and level out unevenness, damage and oxidation. Each part must be smooth and accurate.

Grinding

We remove fine imperfections and prepare the surface for the copper and nickel layer.

Chemical cleaning

The surface is now free of all dust and dirt residues – ready for the application of metal layers.

Matte nickel application

The matte nickel layer creates a strong foundation for the next layers – stability and durability.

Copper plating

We give the parts the necessary thickness and strength – the copper layer is the foundation for perfect chrome.

Grinding and polishing

After copper plating we grind and polish the parts again – the surface is smoothed and prepared for the final shine.

Re-coppering in case of severe oxidation

For heavy damage we apply another copper layer – for perfect quality and longevity.

Nickel plating and finishing

A nickel layer and a thin final finishing layer are applied to the surface, providing shine and protection against corrosion.
