Hi Guys, just wondering does chroming have to be done by experts or are there Diy kits or ways of Chroming?
I haven't found anything suitable on Google or Ebay, but I would really like to be able to chrome my own stuff, even if it was only some of the smaller things.

I hear DIY chroming is a total time waste.
It costs alot to chrome and even more to chrome properly, the costs for the chromers are huge, hence why chroming can be expensive.
Loz has tried a few I believe, he doesn't use the cheapest and gets fabulous results from the fella he uses.
There is Aggrib (Sean?) or something like that, he is cheaper and from what i hear its pretty alright and has a quick turnaround
That's who i will use.
Gee.
