A product with a shiny, reflective finish achieved through Bigmate’s Chrome Plating process.

Chrome plating is a process that applies a thin layer of chromium to metal or plastic surfaces, giving them a shiny, durable, and corrosion-resistant finish. It enhances appearance, improves wear resistance, and protects against rust, making it ideal for automotive parts, appliances, and decorative items.

  1. Preparation: The plastic surface is thoroughly cleaned to remove dirt, grease, and other contaminants.
  2. Activation: A special coating is applied to the plastic to make it conductive and ready for plating.
  3. Plating: The plastic is immersed in a chrome electroplating bath where a thin layer of chrome is deposited on the surface.
  4. Finishing: After plating, the item is polished to achieve the desired shine and smoothness.
