Metal Plating Company in Houston TX

Anyone here on the forum have any experience with metal plating done in the Houston TX area? Looking for coatings that would have originally been used on our trucks i.e. clear zinc, black phosphate, possibly black zinc, etc. (not powder coating). I'm going for an OEM appearance.

Thanks

I know it's not Houston, but since you have not got many suggestions. I'll throw this out there.

Arrow Plating in Ft Worth is who I use and a few other board members.

Here's a search showing some discussions of using them:

I drive past about 20 other platers to take stuff there for my business too.

Thanks Jason. Looks like several members have had good luck with them. I may have to check them out even though I’d rather not ship my parts.
