KhonJaiYen Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 Does anyone know of a company doing Chrome Plate for Motorcycle parts? I'm based in Pattaya and I'm restoring an old bike as a bit of a hobby and would like to chrome plate some parts. Any help would be appreciated.

Loz Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 (edited) You can get an EXCELLENT Chrome paint from Big C for 119bht an can. It is heat resistant too. I've got it on my two stroke exhaust and it shows no signs of heat damage. Put it on right and you'll be very happy with the finish. I put it on my bikes bodywork as a test and was very pleasantly surprised given that I painted it all at night under some trees after 1 or two beers... I know some boys that do plating up here ( they are restoring my classic C70!) but its a long way from pattaya...er, Korat, in case you were wondering...

Moo the mechanic that does all my bikes, he is in Krasang, he used to get stuff chromed in Korat, but there are better places in Sikku, so i am going to get the number for you, give me a couple of days, this is where this bike was done, sorry it as my old bike i had some of chrome done in Korat, the guy in Sikku is a lot better, and prepares it 100%, as it should be done.
