Quick quiz on plating parts.
« on: December 13, 2022, 07:32:33 AM »
When plating throttle shafts and assorted parts, are you guys blasting the teflon coating off??
Is there a decent home brew that will remove it if need be??

Thanks. Doug

If the green coating is in good shape on the shafts you have the option of leaving it and just plating the exposed end pieces.  It usually takes a bead blaster to remove it, then the shafts can be zinc plated as well......
