I ended up painting a Bunch of stuff with Black epoxy and polishing & Plating parts silver and useing Cadmium and chrome mate to get a gold look on some parts looks ok Also I used Black Oxide as well for some black parts like engine brackets and Pulls looks like new original parts.

Looks great! What product did you use for the black oxide process? Thanks, Scott.

I used Caswells stuff not the cheapest wish I was sharper in chemistry could make the stuff myself?

Theirs 3 different types of Black oxide Hot 300+, Warm 220-230, and cold witch is what your looking at.
I want to be able to do the Semi Hot one finding the correct info on what chemicals to buy and use is proving to be difficult and its defiantly not cost effective to do.
But the parts look brand new!
