haven't had a chance to talk to any platers yet. I'll try tomorrow.

Still no time to talk to the platers. Been a busy week. But regarding the stock "ferrocoat" that KS uses: it's actually iron and tin plating. The skirt is done with iron and the rest of the piston is plated with tin to prevent corrosive action between the aluminum and iron. They plate everything, ring grooves, pin bore etc.
