Since, Mike (Kansas 914) brought up the question of the similarity in looks of yellow zinc to cad here is information for you to make your own informed decision. Keep in mind, cad plating has been banned in other countries and is very strictly regulated here in the USA due to the very serious side effects on health due to working with it.

FYI - Jim at Yellowzincplating.com can only accept small items in batches, like bolts and such. I requested a price recently on some shock tower covers, split calipers, shift plates, 901 transmission mounts, etc.

Jim recommended I use a barrel processor or plate vendor. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Best of luck,

Hi. I thought I should create an account to clear up some confusion. I don't recall the exact situation with Dave's parts but occasionally I hear from a customer with a very large batch or parts with dimensions that exceed my capacities and I suggest they contact a larger commercial plater, as I tend to do "smaller" batches for car restorers.

That said, I get orders of 2 parts as well as batches or two or three hundred at a time. I can pretty much always tell from a photo or two if there is anything that I can't handle.
