I have seen reference to various techs/places for replating here on the BB. Anyone had RECENT good experience with having nickel keys replated with silver or even gold? Where, when, turnaround time etc? Many thanks. And yes, I know about coating with shellac, etc to delay the inevitable.

Hey I just replated my '67 R13 about a month ago from Anderson Silver plating. They have a website if you do a search on google. I have no real complaints. I had to take all of the posts and the rings off so that the metal matched. Turnaround was a month and $180 ish. Its a good deal if you can find a repair guy to put everything back on and then do an overhaul... Have a back up to play for a while...
