I doubt he does Cadmium. It's not necessary either. However, the sought after variation in the reflected finish that looks correct in a car restoration is not what I want. Anodize is very consistent in color. Blue, green, black, gold, whatever you want. Think of your typical Aeroquip fittings. However, as I said, my real anodize on AL is fine. The stuff holds up like granite. Steel parts are another matter.
If I wanted the parts to be gold zinc, all I have to do is run down to the local plater that did all my stuff back when. $50 min order up to 50 lbs. Used to be less than a hundred and if you combined with others you could do everything in the engine bay for a couple engines and then some.
