While doing some internet research on cadmium plating and zinc coatings for the rear rims on the 9N my father and I are restoring, I ran across some interesting coatings from Eastwood Co.

They have a product that they claim is very close to looking like cadmium plating which I am thinking about using on the gas tank and the spark plug wire tube called Silver Cad and one for the rear rims called Tank Tone Metallic. I was wondering if anyone here had used either or both of the products.

I ordered two cans of each and will give it a try unless I hear of a problem from someone here.

If you want to check it out their web site is: www.eastwoodco.com. They appear to be geared toward car buffs/restorers but I guess we are close enough.

Thanks.

Paul K.

I used POR to clean and line the tank on my Farmall restoration three years ago. It looks beautiful inside but now notice small silver flakes in the sediment bowl where it must be flaking off inside. If I were to do over I would send the tank to have it acid dipped and just go with that. Good luck.

I have used their brush on paint for manifold and they work well.

Though I haven't used the two Eastwood products that you mentioned, I have used several other Eastwood products, and, though I thought some to be rather pricey, I have generally been satisfied.

Let us know how the finished parts turn out.

I've used a 'cad plating' type of rattle can paint on the rims on my allis chalmers G. Looks decent.. Truth be told.. it's hard for me to tell the difference between it, and plain 'silver metalic' and polished aluminum paints.. etc. In the end.. preperation makes more difference that actual paint color.
