Ogden Chrome Remanufacturing Process

Ogden Chrome is one of the largest remaining public plating facilities left in the country.  Our oversized tanks and huge capacity, coupled with a massive production straightening and polishing line enable us to produce high-quality show chrome on a large scale with quick turn-around.  Even though our competitors do NOT use copper in their process (not even OEM or aftermarket), we will not compromise on quality so our bumpers will always outshine and outclass the competitors.   Because our team of experts has decades of experience doing this, along with modernized tools and processes, Ogden Chrome produces the best chrome plated bumpers in the industry, bar none.
