Metal Finishing Services for Paramount

Factories, dairies of the past and a lot of ingenuity.

Paramount began as a dairy and hay town, and it became an industrial hub after the war. The ice resurfacing machine used at rinks around the world was invented here, and the city is still full of manufacturers, metal fabricators and machine shops. Small homes from the 1940s and 50s fill the neighborhoods in between.

A parcel from Paramount is usually a one day ride down the 710 and the 405 to us, and pallets go by regional freight. Send photos or drawings for a written quote, and we plate, coat or tumble and inspect each part before it returns insured.

Manufacturers send production parts in quantity. Fabricators send welded assemblies for powder coat. Machine shops send precision parts for electroless nickel, and homeowners send faucets, door sets and wrought iron.

What We Do

Plating Services in Paramount

Paramount relies on electroless nickel plating, tumble finishes and powder coating, plus chrome plating and nickel plating.

Metal Restoration for Paramount Homes and Businesses

Fab shops, machine shops and small front yards.

Paramount is a city of makers. Fabricators send welded frames and brackets for powder coat, machine shops send precision parts for electroless nickel, and manufacturers send stamped and cast parts that need tumbling before plating. Big runs are normal, and we keep records so repeat orders match exactly.

The residential streets have small postwar homes with wrought iron fences, security doors and porch lights. Our refurbishing work strips the rust and refinishes them in powder coat. Inside, owners send solid faucets and door sets for chrome or nickel.

    Why Paramount Sends Its Plating to DMC

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Paramount manufacturers and homeowners ask us these.

    Yes. We blast welded assemblies to remove scale and spatter residue, pretreat the steel and coat them in the color and texture you choose. Large frames may need freight, so send sizes. Masking keeps threads and mating surfaces bare when needed.

    Low phosphorus is hardest and solders well, medium is a good all around choice, and high phosphorus resists corrosion best. Tell us how the part is used and we help you choose.

    Yes. Plugs, caps and tape keep threads, bores and mating faces bare during powder coating or plating. Mark the areas on a drawing or circle them on a photo, and we include the masking in the quote so parts bolt together without rework.

    Yes. Strap boxes down, include a packing list with part numbers and counts, and call before it ships so receiving expects it. Our receiving dock is open Monday to Friday, 8 to 4.

    Often, yes. Specialty machine builders in Paramount send brackets, guards, shafts and fittings that need corrosion protection in cold, wet conditions. Electroless nickel and powder coat are the usual choices. Send a drawing and tell us where the part lives, and we suggest a coating and quote it.

    Yes, and most of our work starts that way. We strip the old plating down to the base metal, repair what needs repair, then plate it fresh. New plating over a failing layer never lasts, so we don't do it.

    We do. Along with single pieces for homeowners, we run batches of hundreds or thousands of parts for companies in California and other states. Send a photo of a sample, the quantity and the finish, and we'll quote the whole run.

    Steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, pot metal and zamak. Some of them need extra prep so the plating bonds well, and we'll tell you up front if your part does.
