I had Anobrite do a couple samples for me some years back on broken or otherwise scrap 70 Camaro Window Reveal Moldings. I can tell you the Brite Dip came out fine. I sent them pieces of molding that I had polished by someone local to myself. When I got back one of the samples, some small pitting showed, that the brite dip process exposed, after the polishing had apparently restructured the surface and only covered or hid the pits....Maybe somebody else will/can explain.....or better yet MARCO at Ano-Brite
Bob , seems to me ads in Hemmings Motor news show Brite Dip vendors that might be closer to you than Calif?????

Caswell is a good, down-to-earth, no hype, no scam, place. I've bought stuff from them a lot of times over the years.
