I do not believe Steve does the plating on diverter valves as they need the can taken off to be plated properly. Contact Bill hodel in Ohio he replates them and does an excellent job.

Bill Hoedel has an exclusive contract with DD to restore Divertor Valves...

I've heard of others being able to restore the Yellow Zinc DiChromate on stamped steel front piece, without removing it, but I have no contact info.

Bill Hoedel's "guy" removes the piece, replates and reswedges zinc piece onto housing. NOT certain what is done to internals????

Don Dorfman was rebuilding them for Hodel as well as cosmetically restoring them. Don's work is amazing. I really miss ASL.

Scott Tiemann was also doing them at about 1/3 Hodel's price.

Good Luck, BCD.
