37-39 Windshield Plating
 

Can anyone recommend a plater that can do a good job on a 38 windshield?
Thanks!

I've had good luck with JR Custom Plating in North Branch MN.

I'd give a second for The Chrome Shop Menasha WI. Not the cheapest.

IMO windshield plating is tricky.I am not familiar as to how a 38 frame is fabricated.Talk to the plater and ask if the acid cleaning process can be neutralized. Where metal is crimped over Its nearly impossible to neutralize and the frame rusts from the inside out.
