– At Whitaker our automatic rack line can process copper, nickel, duplex nickel and chrome over steel, stainless steel and brass.
– Electroless nickel plating, or "EN", is an auto-catalytic chemical technique used to deposit a layer of nickel- phosphorus or nickel- boron alloy on a solid work piece, such as metals or plastic.
– We have earned our metal finishing reputation over 100 years of quality metal plating, polishing and buffing workmanship, competitive pricing and flawless metal polishing services.
– Bright Dipping of Brass is a restoration process which cleans and polishes brass tarnished from other operations. This process is available in both rack and barrel applications.
