black chrome isnt a dipping process, its actually a paint from what i heard.
give panthers a call, i remember asking about this years ago and they said they can do it, otherwise you will have to go south, forgot the company name, but its located in Canton, OH.

Here's a thought... albeit a crazy one...
Have you thought about calling any of the local custom chopper/motorcycle shops?
Shops like Ivers, Azzkicker, etc?
They obviously don't do this kind of thing in house, but they might be able to give you some vendors that can do it...
Good luck with you search!

and yes i did call every where local include ppl in toronto and calgary, wheel shops and chroming place....seems like black chrome requires a completely different machine or method....some shows like sikindustries.com can do all sorts of colour chrome..but no BLACK CHROME....saids they don't have the machine.....makes me wonder Quote:

how else do u make problems go away .....
btw: i ditched the black chrome idea, and went to powder coating,
i have found KEY COATING in north vancouver to be very good at what they do, and the boss is great, showed me around and we talked about multiple possibilities
definitely recommend for u guys !!
also i got GOLD PLATING done across the street from KEY COATING called Specialty Plating
the guys there provides great service too !!!

What do you mean "ghetto spray crap don't work for you", plenty of us out there use "ghetto spray crap" for our DIY stuff. If you don't like the suggestion, just say it's not for you and move on. And btw, throwing money aren't going to solve all the problem in the world. I am your problem now, try throwing me money and see if i will go away  | |
