We can restore virtually any plate or tag that has all raised letterings, numbers and raised graphics. We do not restore newer style plates that include pictures, lipstick writing and other flat graphics.

Processing
Each and every plate routes through the full restoration process which includes:

Small dents, small cracks, bends and small holes are repaired.

Plates are prepped with a smooth bonding primer coat, and several coats of quality background and letter paint is applied.

A clear protective sealing procedure is applied to give your plates an outstanding shiny finish.
