Did you know that we also cater for bathroom renovators who want their plastic taps and fittings re-chromed?
A big part of our business is to chrome-plate plastic and fibreglass dashboards, grills, mirrors, door handles.
One of our customers inquired if we can chrome plate a blade of grass. The grass was where he met his fiancee 1o years ago.
Nothing surprises us anymore, but the imagination certainly went wild at exactly why people want things electroplated.
We bronzed wedding lingerie,lace on wedding dresses, umbilical cords, silk booties, dummies, body parts and even
coverd dim sums in 24 k gold. As well as helping artists with sculptures we assist people who want to preserve and protect their keepsakes and heirlooms to turn them into keepsakes. It’s all about eternalising a moment in time.
When we cover keepsakes like baby shoes and hospital bands we are preserving the moment in which these people came onto Earth.
Chrometech has also restored and covered objects tied to people leaving Earth, including a pair of sunglasses
owned by Elvis Presley, but now the property of a collector of Elvis memorabilia. We also chrome plated a rose from Elvis’s casket.
People have asked to electroplate half-eaten hamburgers, doughnuts, computer games, jeans and dog collars. A director from the crematorium asked us if we could preserve a chicken leg, in an investigation into whether human bodies will be able to be preserved

Making the impossible possible

in the future. Technically we could preserve a human body, but it is morbid and imagine the licences you’d need.
