Many of us have seen or heard of black chrome. It’s been around for years. But what most people don’t know is that traditional black chrome really isn’t (or wasn’t) chrome at all! In order to achieve the black chrome look, most metal finishers are selling oxidized nickel plating. This finish produces a darker nickel with a brown or yellow hue and requires a clear coat to prevent the nickel from discoloring and further oxidation.
Classic Components is now offering a true black chrome. The CCI black chrome finish has several advantages:
- It does not require a clear coat so the finished product will not discolor or scratch like other black nickel finishes;
- CCI black chrome has the capability of covering hard to reach areas and parts that are normally difficult to chrome plate;
- Parts that are currently finished in bright chrome and are in good condition can be partially stripped and black chrome plated without the need to purchase new parts.
Classic Components is currently offering black chrome on wheels, parts, frames and swing arms. Wheel prices are listed on the website. All other parts are priced with a 40% additional charge over the traditional chrome price lists.
