I copied this from CRG. Posted today..Joe

To all, I am back in business after a long period of going back and forth with my raw materials supplier. Finally got it nailed down for good and I now have both products, Manganese and Zinc. Same quality as before. I will never sell stuff that doesn't perform the way the customer needs or expects it to. Going to have to come up with a new website, working on that right now, but if anyone is still interested in the products then I can be reach at [email protected] or by phone, 864-386-6331. Thanks to all the folks who have used the stuff in the past and posted such amazing comments on line! Scott Owens

That is clear zinc or zinc chromate plating, which is a totally different electrolytic process. Still not too hard to do, but you need a power supply and different chemicals. Caswell sells kits.
