Default Re: Grundigs of the 70's

I wonder if the original finish was electroplating, but maybe vacuum deposition like for the silvering on a telescope mirror or the metallisation on a CD or balloon mylar film might work, if it could be arranged at an economic price. Not easy! and re-chroming now is fabulously expensive.... add in the ROHS fears of chromium VI.
