  1. Oh My Goodness! What a car! You are a lucky guy! It is a sexy car
  2. Opps, my bad, yes a 1970, I was thinking about a different car and got sidetracked
  3. Yesterday I saw for the first time a sneak peak at the new Dodge Demons! Wow what a car!
  4. I love these cars, it is my dream car. I would love to see pics of any that have been restored, in process, or one that hasn't even started. To see a beginning to completion would be really cool
  5. Kro-Pro specializes in many different finishing capabilities: ● Deburring ● Snag Grinding ● Polishing ● Buffing ● Tumbling Services ● Decorative Copper Plating ● Decorative Nickel Plating ● Decorative Hexavalent Chrome Plating ● Satin Finishes on raw metals or on any of the plating processes One of the amazing things about Kro-Pro is that we do not have quantity requirements. We are willing to do one piece orders and production orders. We love our custom, but we also love doing our production. This is one thing that we have no intentions of giving up. As many shops grow they start wanting to kick out the smaller jobs, but we want to keep that going strong.
  6. Kro-Pro, LLC has a long history since its conception date in 1990. The founder, Bryan Proctor, started his company in 1990 due to health problems that made it difficult to work a normal job. He started with one industrial polishing jack in his red shed in his backyard. His target market started in refinishing and plating of classic bikes and cars. He used Quality Plating, his previous employer, as his plating source when he started. Bryan named his business Proctor’s Custom Metal Finishing and soon rented his first building in Fruitport, MI in 1992. In 1995 He bought his first building. It was during this time that he partnered with his brother, which soon caused them to rename the business Custom Metal Finishing. In 2000 they relocated to a new location that they bought so that their plating and polishing could be under one roof. In 2005 the brothers split and went their separate ways. Bryan ended up closing his doors. In 2006, when he was not able to find a job due to his health, Bryan decided to give it a go one more time with a new business, Proctor’s Metal Finishing. Bryan and his son-in-law, Jake Krol, set up a new rental spot in 2007. Jake taught himself everything he needed to know in the plating side of the business. By 2013 The company was changed to Proctor’s Custom Chrome Plating LLC. By 2014 They purchased the current building at 1004 East Broadway Ave. Norton Shores, MI 49444. In 2015 the company went through some rough times and nearly closed. It was during this time that Bryan’s daughter and Jake’s wife, Nicole, came on board to help. It was during this year that Bryan decided he was tired of being the owner and wanted to start slowing down. At the end of 2016 Bryan closed his doors as owner for the last time, but sold his assets to Jake and Nicole. On January first of 2017 they opened Kro-Pro, LLC. Through careful consideration Jake came up with the name by combining his and Nicole’s last name with the founder’s. Krol and Proctor became Kro-Pro. It was their deepest goal to keep the founders name and legacy attached to their business endeavor and are pleased to have him stay on as a key individual in the company as it moves forward.
