LOCKHEED...the place to tie up for repairs ...especially when you can't afford to be tied up for long

We go all out to get your vessel up, out, and back in business in the least possible time, at the lowest possible cost. Your ship is here today, gone tomorrow—ship- shape and seaworthy. Inside, outside, topside, or bottomside.

That's Lockheed service. 24 hours a day, and 7 days a week if necessary.

We can drydock your vessel or moor it for dockside repairs. And repair every- thing on everything, from tugs to tankers to Naval vessels.

When your ship needs anything from top to bottom, please get a time and cost es- timate from Lockheed's manager of ship repair, Ext. 631. That's his line.

DALIC CONTRACT SELECTIVE PLATING ENGINEERS

WILL GO TO WORK IN YOUR PLANT (or ours)

To restore over-machined parts to their full value.

There's no need to scrap those parts or compo- nents that exceed blueprint dimensions. Our en- gineers, using the Dalic Selective Electroplating

Process, can rebuild undersized sections to meet specifications. They can build up exact areas in- cluding flat or curved surfaces, inside and outside diameters, grooves, tapered holes, recesses, flanges, or out-of-round parts.

No part is too large or too small for the Dalic Proc- ess. And, it's 30 to 60 times faster than bath plating for most metals.

Dalic's 54 metal, metal alloy, and precious metal plating solutions, including gold, silver, and rho- dium, are guaranteed to equal the finest quality obtainable. Write or call for complete information on our Contract Engineering Service.
