Focus sur le traitement des pièces avant restauration

Zinc plating, chrome plating, painting—yes, but what comes before?

That's right, BEFORE painting, zinc plating, or chrome plating, you naturally have to "prepare" the parts.

It's unthinkable to paint over a rusted part, zinc plate a greasy bolt, or chrome plate an unpolished surface! That's what we used to call, in the Army (and elsewhere :)), PSM: paint over sh*t :)

No, each part must undergo preliminary treatment, and that's the treatment we perform at the Workshop with the parts you entrust to us. We've even made a short YouTube video to discuss it—it's always more "illuminating" with images ;)

Restoration lies in the smallest details :)
