First thing is you will have to assess the parts you want to plate to buy the right size kit for you
Craig can help you with this. I personally like using a buffing machine but a car buffer may be ok for the parts you are going to be working on . The copy chrome kit is much easier to use and has no EPA regulations . Some people say that the triple chrome is better but I have using the copy chrome for about 2 years and have had no problems. The sales staff at Caswells can certainly help you with the things you may need for the projects you are working on
Best of luck

Thumbs up Re: start up kit

I have been using copy chrome about 2 years and it is much easier safer and cheaper to use then the triple chrome as far as durability I have not had any parts come back in the 2 years and have many repeat customers
