Paul's Chrome in Evans City, PA can repair it and re-plate it...they are
not cheap, but guarantee everything for life and use show quality
chrome.

Subject: IML: Looking for a potmetal repair shop in the New York area


Hi fellow imperialists!

I am trying to restore a trunklid reflector for my 1960 Imperial, my
fried and fellow IML member Charles Rex (who also ownes a 1960 Imp) has
obtained a reflector from Lowell but this one is heavily pitted.

This became visible after removing the old chrome plating.
What I am looking for now is a shop that can repair the pinnholes and
some craters in the potmetal. After the repair it can be copper plated
and rechromed by any plating company, but the problem is that not many
know how to repair pot metal..

Does anyone know a good repair shop in the New York area that can handle
potmetal (zamac) ?

Thanks in advance,

Robert van der Es
