Hi Ronald

We have a good "Introduction to Chrome Plating" available here. But truthfully, a much better idea than 2 or 3 great internet sites would be 2 or 3 great books. It takes months or years to authoritatively present subjects in good tutorial fashion (that's why we go to school for years and listen to teachers), and books give an author way to be paid for his years of work whereas webpages don't, so they are greatly inferior in quality.
