First thing would be to order the Copy Chrome Kit, comes with just about everything you need to get started chroming. Probably should get Pickle #4 to remove rust from steel. Also get some copper bars for your load bar. Oh yeah, a power supply is needed of course.

After you have got these parts you should be ready to copy chrome. Make sure you order the copy chrome kit size that fits your needs.

Id suggest doing some reading on this caswell site all the answers are here just look. You expecting someone to set this up and run your copy chrome? Do some research!

http://caswellplating.com/kits/combo.htm look at the copy chrome/flash copper kit.

no there isn't one kit that provides "everything" you need.

I bought the wheel Chroming kit I can plate a 20" wheel. Then I had to buy a 35 gal Acid copper, 35 gal chrome stripper, Pickle #4 , and other pickle tanks. I also have built a overhead trolly to hang wheels. Water filter. Dont forget all the sanding and buffing equipment. Let me know if I can help. Thanks, Todd
