Gold plating Victor VI

Post by Rueschlikon »

Hi TMF

I’m in the process of restoring a Victor VI back to factory new condition. Can anyone please recommend someone who is expert in the field of electroplating original Victor VI phonograph parts ?

Thanks to advise
Paul

I would suggest that you take a good original gold plated part, such as a tone arm, and ask the plater to match the finish.

Sorry but it's been years since I had parts gold plated. I would think any reputable plater in your area could match a nice original gold example. Jerry B.
