Default Chrome Plater?

Anyone know of a chrome plater who does excellent stuff on the East Coast?

Not so happy with what Ive been getting back lately from my guy and thinking maybe someone else might be out there...

Anyone use Advanced Custom Chrome ? Heard they were excellent....

Sherms in Sacramento does great work you don't have to go clear back east.

Since you are on the East Coast (where I used to be), Paul's Chrome Plating in PA does among the highest quality work I have seen anywhere and I have used them extensively, I have spent >$10K with them over various projects. They are not inexpensive. One area of expertise they have is the restoration of pitted cast pot-metal parts.

John Wright is probably the best, Advanced is good enough for most though.

I second this, my dad has had a lot of stuff done using Paul's and it comes out amazing.
