Zinc plating
The Winter months are fruitless in a cold garage so not much progress going on here. However a little bit of zinc plating is always fun to do, not only does it make components look good it provides suitable rust prevention. Some components have received a yellow passivate as original.

Hi Colin,
ReplyDeleteVery satisfying having parts plated before fitting :)
You last pic looks like the spacer bracket that sits on the rear bumper.
Cheers

Link to a bad pic but you can see on my car the bracket painted brown

The very same Chris. The brackets were missing on mine as they often are! I found two very rusy ones in a box of old stuff, I didn't know whether they should be painted or what, so just having set up my zinc plating kit I decided to sand blast them and try out the new kit. I could have made some new ones but not the same satisfaction.
