The quality of chrome dipping or plating is crucial. If you use a low-quality chrome plating, the porosity or pinholes in the finished piece are worse than if no plating was used at all. This is because the underlying steel will rust. Poor-quality chrome plating that shows tiny rust spots when you purchase it is a defect, and you should return it.
When you hear the term show chrome, it means that the chrome is high-quality enough to be used on a car that is entered in a car show. Lovers of chrome believe that copper-plating the item first and buffing it to a full sheen before nickel-plating is the key.
High-quality plating jobs normally require your part to have two layers of nickel before the chrome is applied.
Salespeople may throw around terms like triple-chrome plating to mean that there are 3 layers of any type of plating. This simply is their effort to convince you to make a purchase and means very little.
Durable chrome plating meant for outdoor exposure should have a minimum of two layers of nickel plating before the chrome plating is applied. it should include a layer of semi-bright nickel that is followed by a layer of bright nickel because the bright nickel is anodic to semi-bright nickel, making it resist corrosion better. Chrysler developed a test that is used by large shops each day to make certain that the chrome plating has the correct protections. Restoration shops that only offer single-layer nickel plating must apply it in a very heavy layer in order to guarantee corrosion resistance.
