Chrome Plating
Copper, nickel and chrome with hand polishing between layers, for parts that need a bright, lasting shine.
View in AdelantoWe provide metal plating to Adelanto industrial businesses, builders and homeowners who mail parts to our Oceanside shop. Equipment, fabricated parts, gates and home fixtures come back refinished and insured.
A high desert city with room to build.
Adelanto sits west of Victorville on the high desert, along Highway 395. It has wide open land, a growing industrial park and new housing tracts spreading across the desert floor. The Southern California Logistics Airport is close by. Wind, sand, intense summer sun and cold winter nights all test anything metal left outside.
Down the 395 and the 15, a parcel from Adelanto usually reaches Oceanside within a business day, and heavier work rides a freight truck. Your photos get you a written quote, and we strip, coat or plate and inspect everything before the insured return.
Industrial businesses send fabricated frames, brackets and equipment parts for powder coat. Builders send rails and fixtures for new homes. Homeowners send gates, mailboxes, porch lights and patio furniture worn by the desert.
Adelanto mostly needs powder coating and refurbishing, with chrome plating, nickel plating and tumble finishes for smaller parts.

Adelanto's industrial park is home to fabrication and manufacturing businesses that send welded frames, brackets and equipment parts. We blast off scale and spatter residue, pretreat and powder coat them, and keep colors on record so the next order matches. Small parts can be tumbled before coating.
New neighborhoods keep going up, and builders send stair rails and hardware to be finished before installation. Homeowners on the desert's open lots send gates, mailboxes and porch lights that blowing sand has stripped, plus patio furniture bleached by the sun.
Not sure what your part needs? Send us a photo.
We'll tell you what the metal is, what it takes to bring it back and what it costs. A written quote usually comes back within 24 business hours, and there's no obligation.
Getting Adelanto parts to our shop is simple.
Send photos of every part with a short description. We reply with a written quote and a lead time, usually the same business day. Never ship before you have a quote number.
Wrap each piece individually, keep metal from touching metal, and use at least three inches of padding on every side. Double box long trim and bumpers.
Ship with any carrier, insure the box for what the parts are worth to you, and email us the tracking number so we know it is on the way.
We send photos when the work is done. Once you approve and pay, your parts go back to you packed the same careful way.

Frequently Asked Questions
Adelanto businesses and homeowners ask these often.
Yes. We blast welded frames to clean off scale and weld residue, pretreat the steel and powder coat it in your color and texture. Threads and mating surfaces can be masked. Larger frames ship by freight, so send dimensions and we'll help plan it.
Powder coat is the toughest for outdoor pieces. Textured finishes hide wear well. Wipe dust off with a damp cloth rather than a dry one. Charcoal and bronze tones hide desert grit especially well.
Yes. Mark each rail with its lot number, and the finished pieces come back bundled by lot so the framing crew can grab what they need.
Yes. We strip, repair and powder coat it in a light color that stays cooler. Sets of chairs and tables are best sent together.
Yes. Once a color and texture are approved, we keep them on file with your part numbers. Each month's parts can come on a pallet or in parcel boxes, and they go back matched to the first run. A standing order also helps us plan your turnaround more predictably.
Not at all. Most of what comes through our door is home and business hardware: faucets, light fixtures, door handles, cabinet pulls, railings and decorative pieces. We also work for hotels, restaurants, boat owners and manufacturers.
Tell us what the part is, roughly how big it is, how many pieces you have and the finish you're after. If you know the metal, mention it. If not, that's fine. We can usually tell from the photos.
Every part is quoted on its own. The biggest factors are condition, the base metal, size and shape, the finish you choose and how many pieces you send. A part with deep pits or broken spots takes more work before it can be plated.
