Accumulator,
I searched extensively for sources which mentioned automotive parts as their forte, unfortunately none nearby existed so I decided to phone interview a few local places. I narrowed it down to the platers that didn`t overreact when I told them what I wanted done. I took a chance with the shop I used, luckily the job was completed on time (3 business days) at the price quoted. I will be using them again when I need to have my nuts/bolts gold cad plated in the future. Again I had previous business history with them which helped.
Funny you mention the EPA violations, I am an equipment supplier including wastewater equipment. It`s amazing walking into facilities and seeing some of the things manufacturers get away with. Many get fined on a regular basis for dumping chemicals into sewers and only purchase equipment when faced with shutdown.:nono I`ve seen this not just in the chemical industry but also dairy and food industries. OTOH Playing Devils Advocate.....with all the regulations in the US it`s no wonder manufacturers are moving overseas, not only is labor cheaper but the EPA isn`t there to regulate them.
