It will still be a few days before I have the Zenith reassembled. I will post pictures of the process then. The zinc plating was pretty easy and inexpensive.

Picture: from left to right -

As found
Cleaned up (some base metal exposed)
Replated

The picture was originally vertically oriented making the can on the right appear larger. In the original orientation it was closer - so appears larger.
