Our 20%-Improved Chrome Covering Power

With the existing Plating on Plastics (POP) technology, the chrome covering power is insufficient for parts with recessed areas that require weatherability, creating a corrosion concern. This means that the unplated areas need to be painted, resulting in high cost and design restrictions.
