Google Cadmium plating and the name of a major city near you. You will find them there.

I've simulated Cad Plating, with DULL ALUJIMUM spray paint, then just a "WHISP" of CLEAR.

Some time ago, the EPA all but shut down most Cadmium platers due to the hazardous emissions. Some have installed the required equipment to mitigate those problems.

Yes, a Google search is the place to start.

Nothing wrong with a reputable Cad plater from out-of-state if they possess the proper licesnses. Also, nothing wrong with contacting those on the list.

I wanted to do some cad, but found the prices to be fairly crazy. I did the non-metallic aluminum spray like Bill and most everybody that has looked at the parts asks me where I got the plating done. I dare say it would pass fine point for looks.

The best cad I ever had done was at Electro Plating Specialties in Hayward California. Not cheap but really great. Like any plating, do as much of the cleaning, prep work yourself.

I used Three J's Industries plating in Chicago, pretty close to you. They did very good white cad plating on my parts about 2 years ago. Do a search on the internet for their phone number,
