Parts plating

[Keith Tedford]

Is there any particular company in Southern Ontario that handles the various plating processes for restoring parts. I'm thinking of the phosphate, silver cad, gold irridite etc.

I can do anything you need. Not in Canada though.

Well, I guess I have to say something here.

Keith, last winter I had all my stuff redone by Micky. I had them shipped from a friend's in Syracuse, NY. Then I went to his place personally to pick them up and see his shop. Avoided all the duty, brokerage, etc. that way. We even had a fellow CanAm Chevelle Club member buy us lunch in Ashtabula /ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif. Micky does nice work.

Something to consider anyway.

Mickey,
I was sanding down the inside of a set of 69 front turn signal housings, and it appeared to be gold cad underneath. Do you know if gold cad is the correct finish for the exterior of the housings? If so, do you have a way to plate the outside without damaging the contacts? like maybe fill with something.

Can redo them without hurting the contacts, done several as long as they are in good shape come out fine. License lamps also.

Thanks Don for the compliments.
