Another good video Jayhawker. Thanks for bringing me along on the journey; enjoyed the ride. Haven't been disappointed yet. I had no idea that there are products that would allow me to do this plating stuff at home. In each of your videos I have learned at least one new thing &, in a number of them, I've come away with either new knowledge or new ideas. I like the idea of blackening the hardware as you did; I think it beats cleaning stuff & then painting it. I'm assuming that the black doesn't come off as easy as paint does. Later Gator.
Yet another great video from you! Thanks for the tip about Caswell. I looked them up and I’m amazed at what all they offer. I believe I can do plating with their systems. I’ll either need to hire it done or learn how myself. Thank you yet again!
I love your channel! i found your channel because i am looking to get a 49-52 chevy straight 6. I have learned so much. thanks for the great content. I have been binge watching all your vids this past couple of months. good stuff!
Nice job on the plating! Will the process possibly harm the diaphragm in the choke pull-offs? I'm guessing that the metal was plated before assembly when they were manufactured.
Outstanding work and another great video. I know that you simply cleaned up the green coated parts, but is there a way to restore those pieces to their original state or color? thanks for a reply.
One of the most exciting and relaxing things to watch
Hey Jay, great video, your detail is second to none, thanks for sharing, be waiting for the next one, and God Bless

Glad to have you aboard! Thanks
I like your setup those parts turned out pretty good way to go thanks for sharing 🙂
Thanks 👍
Try green drab chromate for rochsester bodys and #1glass bead in a blasting cabinet is great to clean carb bodys and linkage parts?
You are something else…
Great video!

Older rochsester 4gc bodys were green chromate dipped .
Glass bead leaves a smooth shiny metal surface unlike sand or other abrasives wich leaves a ruff surface.
Sodium hydroxide based degreasers do decompose plastics and rubber .
You should zinc plate the bodies before "chromating" or more correctly, passivating them. It will make a huuuuuge difference!
They also sell green chromate powder to do your own chromate.
Might of been realistically a little harsh there.............
The carb body isn't close to original needs a lot more time in that yellow dip you got there.
