61 Vette Zinc Coatings

[VetteFreak101]

I tried an experiment of clearcoat powdercoating my latches locks, hinges etc. However, this did not come out as expected because it rusts underneath the clearcoat. Another hard lesson of restoration. Does anyone know of anyone that can restore the original zinc coatings on these parts for a 61' Vette for a reasonable price?

Thanks,
Doug

Almost all platers offer zinc-plating, usually on a bulk basis; your fun will be removing the powder-coating first.
