Copper platting
I have a friend looking for a place to get his wheels copper plated let me know if you guys know of anything
|
I'd get in touch with Paul, Hardcorez28, as I'm sure he knows someone.

Sounds expensive and heavy. And junkies will try to steal them. Why not copper color powdercoating?
|
Any place that does show chroming can do it. Copper plating is the first step.

I think I read that they get the copper look by doing chrome and then a brown powdercoat over it. Obviously its a certain amount in order to make it look right.
And with copper, remember a clear coat is very important. Any scratches would need to be fixed asap. chrome can hold up a bit on its own as well as aluminum but copper will oxidize to green over time when exposed and would be accelerated by road salt/brine left over on the roads during winter as well as for the first few weeks of spring. |
I use a guy in Newark
