| Atlas Plating uses
different processes for striping the old plating. We can de-plate the
parts which are covered by Chrome, Nickel, Copper, Brass, Gold, etc. without
damaging the base metal. We also strip paint off the parts. If you have a
cracked or broken wheel it has to be stripped first before any welding. the challenging part of stripping is related to one of the electroplating properties. the thickness of electroplated layer is not uniform, it is proportional to the electricity flux at each point. the amount of electrical current is a function of geometry , sharp corners attract the most current density and deep corners the least , when we start de-plating by reversing the electrical flow, often the area with thin plating strip first while in some area we still see the plating layers. so sometimes in order to preserve the piece we have to stop and remove the rest of plating layer by sanding. Prices: Paint Stripping wheels up to 17" : $30 each Chrome Stripping wheels up to 17": $40 each please email pictures before shipping your parts.
