Hi guys. I'm looking to get some steel door latch parts & brackets coated (gloss black), as well as some ally bits (fuel caps & surrounds).

While the ally requires anodising, I believe steel needs some other kind of alternative plating process. I've called a load of places in the Redditch area, but folks either can't coat steel, or don't want to deal with a measly few car parts.

I'd rather do this properly, so don't just want to spray the parts..... does anyone know a friendly plater local;ish, who could help out for a few pound notes?

Thanks, Mark

Interestingly, they don't come up in Yell / Google searches for metal finishers / platers.... however, thanks for the link, I've spoken to them and they may be able to help. Fingers crossed!
