CREATE an entirely new look for an old metal fixture with gold or silver plating.

Plating shines up metals

HAVE you ever found an object that you absolutely loved but the finish wasn’t the right colour? Here’s a solution to your problem: plating. It’s relatively inexpensive and can be done in a week. Gold, silver and brass plating are just some of the finishes you can acquire at a plating shop. All you have to do is locate a plating company near you. These plating companies are located in most residential areas and can be found in your phone book. So what kind of objects can be plated? Light fixtures and fan covers are two examples. We recently had an old “King” fan cover re-plated in chrome to go in over our,

e room y

stove. The results were

charming.

Do vou happen to have an

old light fixture that needs

some sprucing up? Plating is

perfect for this provided it

doesn’t have a plastic finish.

Plastic finishes are not suit-

able for this process.

On the whole, however, most

metals can be plated.

Plated pieces can also be pol- ished and cleaned and the finish should last a very long time.

So pull out-that treasure you found last weekend at the garage sale and head to the plating shop.

You'll be amazed at the results.

For more information about plating you can call Specialty Plating, 1443 Dominion, North Vancouver, 988-8366. _
