00bullitt Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 This came up in the M&P forum and Dan Burwell had mentioned that he had several stainless M&P slides hard chromed. I was not aware hard chrome would bond to stainless. Is it just as durable as applying to carbon steel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trickpony Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I've had Techplate and Metaloy apply hard chrome to a couple of my stainless SVI's and they seem to be doing great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary1911A1 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Tripp hard chromed a stainless pre-series II Kimber of mine years ago and there's no problem. Looks as good as new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
00bullitt Posted July 30, 2009 Author Share Posted July 30, 2009 Thanks guys.....somewhere along the line(based on something someone else had told me) I had come to believe that SS could not be hard chromed. Which sucks because there were a many of times I wanted hard chrome over stainless. Good to know now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
