That's a great question. We can vary the thickness of our metals from our micro plating,which is approximately 2 thousands thick and used mostly for our flying model customers that have weight restrictions to our standard plating that's 10 thousands thick. Keep in mind that's 10 thousands of metal ,,,I have one of the first items I plated some 17 years ago and I have machined polished this thing MORE than 50 times and it shows no signs of wear through, in fact it just gets a deeper shine.

So in short it can be polished as offen as the owner likes and we prefer them to use a machine to get quick results.
