clint78z Posted August 18, 2000 Share Posted August 18, 2000 If you don't have acces to fancy powdercoating and don't want to spend alot of dough on chome . You can renew old gold colored pieces like fuel rail by zinc plating $30us can get most of the parts done and restores that factory fresh look .

Drax240z Posted August 19, 2000 Share Posted August 19, 2000 Great idea Clint, I'll have to do some of this. What type of buisnesses offer this service? Mainly chroming places etc? Or is it some other type of specialty shop? ------------------ Drax240z 1973 240z - L28TURBO transplant on the way! http://members.xoom.com/r_lewis/datsun.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clint78z Posted August 21, 2000 Author Share Posted August 21, 2000 Some chrome places do this some don't, mostly people don't do it because it is too cheap and the don't make cash from it . Mine looks better than original more gold tinge . It sure freshens things up . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted August 28, 2000 Share Posted August 28, 2000 The company I buy my coating material from sells a coating called "carb coat", it has that gold tinge to it , and looks like a new part, the only draw back is that you have to dissassemble the carb completely and bake this finish on. Sometimes more trouble than it is worth.
