Best Chrome plater ever was in Albury opposite the hospital.
There was a business "Chrome for Cruizin" that organised delivery to and from there and they were based in Girraween, this was some time ago, but I
had them rechrome my Ghia Door Handles from rubbish to show finish.
You may be able to Google them down!
Cheers,
David

Alan
I think u will find the necks or arms are die cast and will be full of pits which carnt be sand or buffed out
the process that Bronze studio uses is perfect for this type of material
It wil b exeee but worth it
