Have an original that will need rechroming. Since the flat face surface is uniquely brushed, is this a tricky process thatI should send out to the pros; or should one of the platers in Houston be able to perform properly. Not sure how this is accomplished. Also, what is the correct type pin used to secure to notched rod ? If it is a drive pin , how is it removed ? By drilling out ? Mine had been installed upside down to keep the pin from falling out I guess. Anyway, I got lucky because it came out easily. Just want to make sure I put the correct one back. As always, thanks for your responses.
