Plating parts

Got rust? Seats, panels, doors, windows, etc. The old messages from the NPCA 'Body & Interior' category are here.

Plating parts

Post by miller »

Hey all..

Just wanted peoples thoughts or experiences on zinc plating parts like windscreen hinges, door hinges etc. You can get some pretty nice finishes these days, I'd be almost tempted to not even paint them.

Also for those of you that have repainted your patrol how have your door hinges held up? I havnt seen a door hinge that didnt have a touch of rust because of the design.

Cheers, Miller
