Ed. note: Sorry, this RFQ is outdated, and contact info no longer available; but technical replies are welcome. No commercial suggestions please ( huh? why?)

Dear Gary,

To find a supplier, contact a local plating supply company or the Ohio Metal Finishing Association, or the American Electroplating Society. They should be able to help you.

An easy first step is to consult the list of plating shops here at www.finishing.com/shops/
