All performance utilizing a “green” organic process. All materials are produced exclusively in the USA!materials are produced exclusively in the USA!This is not a traditional powder coated process that has been used in the past for anything from lawn furniture to automotive products. The component parts to this process were developed for NASA for use on the Space Shuttle. This is a new space age 3-step process whereby Pure Chrome is applied over an organic epoxy basecoat in a vacuum chamber. Then an exclusive DuPont™ clear coat especially formulated for road wheel usage is applied creating a layer of unequalled protection. This process redefines the current limit of technology giving birth to the term: Hybrid Pure Chrome.

The result is the next generation of chrome plating yielding a substantial increase in durability against corrosion during winter use, ocean area salt spray, gravel chip resistance and general peeling of the chrome finish. And its all Environmentally Friendly!

How does everyday use of affect Hybrid Pure Chrome? In short, it is the most bullet proof chrome plating you are ever going to experience. State of the art laboratory test were conducted to determine how the following factors would affect the life of our wheels. After 200 hours of testing which equates to 10 Years of daily use or three times that of conventional chrome. Road salt, Magnesium Chloride, abrasive sand, brake dust, and humidity had no effect on our wheel. The test results show that the Hybrid Pure Chrome wheels continue to maintain their original finish even after many years of use.

Advantages of Pure ChromeAdvantages of Pure Chrome• You won’t get returns or warranty problems• Cold stripping as opposed to heat stripping (which can harm rims)• Improved Life against Road Salt Exposure, Including Magnesium

Chloride!• 4 Year Limited Warranty Available• Clearcoat Protects Chrome Finish• Ease of Cleaning• Hybrid Pure Chrome is a “GREEN ORGANIC” Process• All materials are produced exclusively in the U.S.A.• Excellent Performance for Coastal Exposure • Excellent Performance in Winter Exposure• No corrosion in bead seat area• No Corrosion in center hole/ lug nut area• No Pitting• No Peeling on backside of the wheel• Better Coverage in Recesses:

Frequently Asked QuestionsFrequently Asked Questions• How will Pure Chrome improve my profits? Imagine not having any returns due to plating

failure. Customer satisfaction remains very high and your customer is more likely to return to purchase again.

• What is Pure Chrome Finish? Pure Chrome is a high performance multi-layer coating that looks like traditional chrome, but performs much better in everyday road environments.

• What is it made of? The coating process is 5 layers of organic epoxy and a pure chrome metal deposit. The final layer is a DuPont™ powder-acrylic clearcoat which protects the chrome from the elements.

• How good is Pure Chrome? Pure Chrome passes all of the standard OE testing including: salt spray, thermal shock, chip resistance, brake dust and magnesium chloride.

• Why do I need Pure Chrome? I Don’t Live in the Snow-belt or by the Ocean. It doesn’t matter where you live, Pure Chrome outlasts conventional chrome three-times over. That’s beneficial to any chrome wheel owner.

• Will my Pure Chrome fail? The weather ability of this product far exceeds the test results of traditional chrome plating. This product has survived 4 harsh Midwest winters with no failures.

• Where is Pure Chrome made? All parts of the process are made in the U.S.A.

• Why is Pure Chrome a “green” process? No hazardous chemicals or solvents are used in the process.

• How long has Pure Chrome been around? For about 50 years. It has been used on road wheels for 4 years including 4 harsh winter seasons with no road failures.
