buzzer Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Hi, I need to have some guitar parts gold plated. Anyone know where to go, or who to call? The normal advice is to not have a jeweler do it, usually because of wear and tear, proper surface preparation, and thickness of the plating, it's better to have done by a more specialized place. Thanks, Buzzer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chav Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Hi Buzzer. Did you ever find anywhere to plate? Anyone else know of anywhere in Thailand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planemad Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Some years ago I bought a ring for the wife, we were at MBK. The wife asked if they had the same in white gold (not my idea of gold, but thats not the point!), the assistant said come back in 20 mins, we did and there it was in white gold.....plated of course. Lacking any other advice, I would ask at any of the many jewellers at MBK, or anywhere else for that matter, they might either be able to get it done for you or at least point you in the right direction. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haroldc Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 If you need a professional plating service, PM me. Its a small Thai company that gets subcontracts from large Thai jewelry manufacturers. Very good work and service, but you'll need to either speak Thai or have someone who can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
