We have had a perfect success record plating SLA parts--chrome or gold with Associated Electroplaters, Al Bacon, 248-547-5520.

Holiday Greetings to Everyone!!!

I was hoping to find out if anyone has met any measure
of success with chrome plating of RP patterns. We have sent out quite a
few SL patterns for vacuum metalizing and have been happy with the results.
 SL patterns are non-conductive but, would it help the plating process if
a conductive coating were applied to the pattern. Any information would be
appreciated.

Thanks in advance
