okay,
I have an automotive component (sg iron casting, car suspension part) which requires some kind of anti-corrosion treatment for mass production.
typical options are; zinc plate and passivate, black phosphate and paint, chemical blacking, etc.
My problem is that I need to treat some of the machined features after the machining process. I cannot find a 'selective' plating process although 'kemps' handbook describes one. Has anyone had experiance of this?
Also, I need to understand fully how plating processes etc. work - but I haven't found any quality links, any suggestions....
many thanks in advance...
