Title: zinc, chrome and tank straightening
Post by: Mike Anderson on February 11, 2011, 08:56:49 AM

Hey Steve,

Just leaving to pick up fresh zinc and chrome plating, tanks didn't make it back yesterday should be here today. Can't wait to see how straight Joel got them. Hopefully I will have some great news later today. Might have some pictures to post.
Later Mike

Mike,

Are you having dents removed and if so, do you know what process they use?  I'm just curious.

The fellow who does my dent removal, does it all by hand thru the filler neck. He is very talented. I will post some before and after photos when the tanks get back.

Hi Mike,

Who did you use for the zinc plating, and were they reasonable? Thannks!
