Anodize / Chrome Recommendations

I'm looking for recommendations for a good anodize service with demonstrated experience refinishing '68 SWB door frames and also a service for re-chroming horn grilles.

Thx.

This question came up a few weeks ago on the body forum. The only reply for anodizing was a DIY method at Anodizing Aluminum

Probably not the answer you wanted, but better than nothing. I've got a '68 myself and am wanting to have similar work done. Hopefully someone will chime in on where to get the horn grilles rechromed.

There is a place in El Paso that I have used to chrome some parts with great results.

Thx DDinham, what's the name of the El Paso place? I get down there for business from time to time so I may look them up.

Anyone else have sources for chroming and anodizing?

Thx,
Dan

I'd have to look back in my receipts to be sure but I thinks it was, believe it or not, El Paso Chrome.
I do some research and let you know.

Art Brass Plating in Seattle, WA does this, I've used them. They do extremely nice work. Rob Codling was my contact.

regards,
Eric
