I've re read the quote and he does indeed state the first coat is a Zinc primer. I'll ask what top coat is used.

Dropped off all 4 arms this morning. I'm away for a week so I've told him I will call him Monday 23rd to see if they are done.

I de-rusted one using electrolysis, it worked surprisingly well. A lot - lot slower than sandblasting though ( like a week ).

I'm happy with the result. As they are original or at least I know they are not poor Indian copies, I will store them.

They look really good did they say what top coat was used, did you change the bushes? it as got to be worth preserving good arms and will be quite a lot less than purchasing new Indian ones that's for sure. Replied to your PM. GLOUCESTER COATING LTD Mobile No: 07778-753513 Office No: 01452-428896

Zinc primer and powder coated on top. He told me upon collection he would have preferred the bushes removed. A bit late by then. When fitted I will fill them with Dinitrol and coat the outside. I say fit them but not sure when because both 75’s have new ones already with the same Dinitrol treatment. They may end up on another project in the future? It’s a bit of insurance for the future as I know they fit and if parts become scarce I have a set.
