The top photo is the 50 quids worth batch that was Bright Zinc Plated (BZP) NOT chrome (nipples and contact breaker plates were gold passivated and the rest were clear passivated).. The bottom set in tubs etc. are what I have there for plating, at the moment. I stripped all of the zinc and prepped them myself though with my magic brew , caustic Soda , EDTA , trietholamene (all available off eBay) @ 70°C in a slow cooker (Don't worry it's safe to eat at my place again as I bought the missus a new one ... which like the old one has never been used   ;D ;D)

That's what I was thinking Pete as that's what DS do I think on their 400/4's. May selectively bead blast small areas of rust.

Whilst my wife is in 'Play' mode ... if she's writing plays/arranging their performance I can do what the hell I like as she goes into a luvvie trance  :) Also it was taking Bitsa's caustic advice .. get on with yer fr*ggin bikes mate and stop waffling  ;D
