I located a business that can chrome plastic. Those of you that want to chrome your go kart hub caps may want to call him. I am going to send him mine here in a few days. We will see what kind of work he does, he says the charge will be $20.00 per hub cap and it takes 7-10 days. To speak to him directly, please call (714) 822-6086 This message has been edited by nitrosteve on 01-27-2010 at 11:08 AM |

Tom Randall may want to send him a few things. I know he has some painted center caps he wanted to chrome as well as his hub caps. Price is right. I hope the quality holds up. (And I hope Tom holds back a center cap or two.) |

I know a guy here in the Annapolis MD area that runs a Body Shop and has started to "Chrome Plate" plastic parts. I have seen some of the results and although they look OK they are by no means what I would consider a Chrome finish. Yes it shines but looks more like a semi bright polished stainless look. The other issue that his particular product has is that it does not hold up real well in a warm environment such as under the hood. I do not know how other finishes are applied, his finish is an applied finish very much like paint and is quite time consuming to apply. I for one would not part with the dollars necessary for the finish I saw. JMO |

We need to find out who chromed the center caps. The backs of them are crummy but the chrome sure holds up well. |

I am very familiar with this process. It is not a true chroming process which is used in the industry. It is not triple plated chrome like I use. The product will not last in the outside environment. It looks like a low quality chrome in appearance. Those of you who know me, know that I do no like to degrade anyones product, but this is like throwing your money away. ------------------ |

He does the spray on chrome for $20.00 each, he does actual chroming like on the chrome center caps for $65.00 each. The choice is your option. |
