D and G chrome plating in Cincinnati
i am getting all of my trim and such together to have it re-plated, have any of you here used D&G chrome in Cincinnati? i live in Florence Ky and they are about 20 minutes away from me but i do not know about their work. i do know that they have been in business a long time though, thanks.

I live in Alexandria. Good to see another Ky Olds owner.
Their work in pretty good, but their prices and wait time are excessive.
Their are better options with less cost.
Try Qual Krome in Pa....
For bumpers, try Tri Cities in Tenn...
Good luck

nice to meet you Tim, Dustin at wilder creations actually gave me your number a few months ago, said you were the olds guru around here. I have heard of tri cities in tenn, I have also heard D&G wait times were a little long. I just want to make sure the quality is there. The man that built the company passed many years ago and the kids took over, just making sure the quality was still there.

I certainly wasn’t trying to suggest they are bad people, quite the opposite! My interaction with Al was great. They stand behind their work and offer explanation on the processes.
My complaint centered around cost and time to get the product back. In one cars, I was told over a year turnaround for 5 pieces. But I am sure with a family contact, you would be able to get things done cheaper and quicker.
Thanks

A lot of 65 trim is pot metal... A phone call to your chromer may reveal a lot. Some shops dont do potmetal and the ones who do are EXPENSIVE. And some shops grind away lots of detail for chroming pot metal. I have used Qualchrome, they specialize in pot metal chrome. One quarter spear for my 67 cost well over 300 dollars. I would suggest if you have a shop in mind call them or drive over with your pieces and let them look, quote, and explain exactly what they will do with the process. These parts are too scarce to have a shop ruin them...
