Metal polishing for Swansea customers
Swansea is about 90 miles from our workshop near Weston-super-Mare, along the M4 and over the Severn crossing. Items can come to us by insured courier, or call 01934 820 454 to arrange a time to drop them in.
Brass furniture fittings such as handles, knobs, escutcheons, hinges and drawer pulls are easy to overlook, but polished properly they lift a dresser or cabinet. Remove them from the furniture and send them together, labelled if they need to go back in a particular place, and we will polish them as a set so they match.
For the full range of metals we polish and how we work, see our main metal polishing page.
We specialise in restoring all types of classic/vintage car parts, motorcycle parts, marine parts, BMX/Raleigh Chopper parts, household items and bespoke items. We can also take on industrial polishing work.
Polishing is a critical part of the electroplating service which is carried out by experienced polishers using industrial machines before plating begins.
All marks, blemishes and imperfections need to be removed at this stage, but as we are working in most cases with second hand metal this is not always possible and sometimes it is inevitable that pits may remain in restoration items after plating.
Die cast and aluminium in particular can contain a certain amount of porosity therefore an initial assessment will be made upon receipt, so you the customer are fully aware of the overall finish that we will be able to achieve.
Whilst metal polishing services are part of the electroplating process, we are happy to offer this as a stand alone service. We can meet your individual requests by polishing all types of metal to a mirror or satin finish. We provide a high quality finish on Aluminium or Stainless Steel items.
Please call us on 01934 820 454 or email us to discuss your polishing requirements.
