Hi guys,

thought I should share the progress. I drove by the media blast guy after posting, and after a few days I went back and took them to the CAD plater. It took only a week, and the result was surprisingly good. Here is a picture of some larger parts:



And, one of my buckets full with Porsche hardware looked like this after plating.



Much nicer to use this hardware instead of greasy and rusty old parts!

All and all I think I media blasted and plated around 30 kg (about 60 lbs) of parts, costing me only $250. To me that is an absolute bargain!

Still, I have to figure out which bolt goes where, and there are some hardware that I definately can't use anymore. So my original question is still vaild.

I tried that last link to the PET catalogue, and it worked beautifully. Now I have the same problem as you guys above, which is to get a grip of how to find all the hardware inside the 473 pages. Not sure how to do that yet!


Thanks,

Johan

Looking good Johan. Can I ask where you got the parts plated - I have some parts I want to get plated as well...
