I had Speed Sport in Texas do some Rockola and Seeburg parts, Nice work but really expensive, I have more in the Seeburg chrome than what I can sell the machine for. I think the problem was plating pot metal. Has anyone used Vinyl Chrome ?

Hi All,
I think I've been on this site since the beginning and amongst everything discussed, chrome is definitely not at the top of the list.
I'm looking at my Rowe Tropicana, the jukebox I have owned the longest. Since 1984. I had it re chromed then, the original chrome was totally shot.
I have lost count of the number of Tropicanas I have repaired over the years and the chrome is always terrible on them and much later Rowe's.
So from 1964 to 1984 (20 years and terrible chrome). Had mine re chromed in 1984 (40 years so double the original chrome) and it's still 100 percent perfect. So my question is (taking environmental conditions and vandalism and wear and tear out of the equation), did Rowe Ami have rubbish chromers ?
Or indeed any jukebox manufacturer? Just a thought.
