These trims are over 75 years old and are made from Pot metal / Mazac / Zinc Alloy / Monkey Metal.

Whatever you call it, the material is poor quality. It is terrible to work with but you can see how we do our best to restore these and chrome them. Hopefully we can make them so they are useable again.

Can we get a good finish on these heavily pitted parts? Watch and find out
