Passitive green hardware
I just dropped $100 at my Yamaha dealer for a handful of Phillips screws. Anybody have a source for oem-style passitive green plated hardware? This is a restoration, otherwise I'd just use Allen screws...

Re: Passitive green hardware
you can try to plate the old stuff yourself, but its a bit hit n miss... else find a pro plater who is willing to give it a try, also hit n miss from what ive seen tho...

I use paint on big items like brake pedal and it's holding very well .

Re: Passitive green hardware
Have you found any paint that is close to the plating colour? I don't want to paint it black unless I have to.

Re: Passitive green hardware
I had my local automotive paint dealer match the color from a brake pedal in a spray can .

There are places in the UK that do the Olive Green plating. Grab a copy of classic bike mechanics at your local Barnes and Noble, they advertise in there.
Box it up, send it off and sit back and wait a couple of weeks. It shouldn't be too expensive.

Re: Passitive green hardware
Caswell sells a kit for passive green that is supposed to work on zinc plated metal, never seen the results. May be an option.
