Let your fixtures shine in the colour they were meant for
Transform everyday fixtures into statement pieces with chrome colour changing. Ideal for kitchen and bathroom taps, sinks, door handles, and more, our colour plating service uses advanced chrome dye infusion techniques to deliver a luxe finish in every shade imaginable. The wide colour palette can also be used to complement original manufacturer finishes, ensuring a unified look across your space.
Enduring colour, elevated style
A1’s chrome colour changing service bonds vibrant long-lasting colour directly onto chrome, steel, ABS or aluminum while preserving the integrity of the original material. With a choice of 40+ metallic tones, an extensive RAL range, and the option to craft your own custom blend, the possibilities are as unique as your vision.
Luxury finishes, lasting impact
From high gloss to matte, our range of finishes offer more than stunning style. With unbeatable resistance to fingerprints and grease, you can expect a low maintenance yet durable, high-end transformation that outperforms traditional refinishing.
Enjoy a space that’s as practical as it is beautiful with A1 Kitchens and Bathrooms.
Colours
The possibilities are endless, we can complement existing finishes from leading brands, or finish in any RAL colour or your own bespoke mix.
The finishing process is not a colour matching service and may not achieve a 100% match. We offer a range of colours to complement various manufacturers’ original finishes or work with specified RAL colours or create your own bespoke mix.
The Process
one
PRODUCT INSPECTION
Initial inspection and disassembly (if required) of donor product. Chrome-plated metal or ABS, polished stainless steel and polished aluminium are all suitable.
two
PRODUCT PREPARATION
The product is thoroughly cleaned and de-greased before starting the re-finishing process to ensure maximum adhesion and de-ionised to remove static from the surface.
three
APPLY ETCH PRIMER
We apply our unique translucent "etch" primer to the polished surface. This primer bonds securely to the surface, preparing it for the dye.
four
INFUSER COLOUR
Once the primer is applied, we infuse special dyes directly into the surface. The primer absorbs these dyes, changing the product's colour to your selected shade.
five
CURING
The product is then carefully cured (dried) using a combination of infrared light and low-level heat, following a precise process to ensure the perfect result.
five
FINAL FINISH
The finished product is carefully re-assembled and securely packaged for return. Beautifully transformed to complement your colour scheme with a durable and stylish finish.
