[QUOTE="69ST, post: 84409, member: 5"] Better have them re-plated soon after. Dunno about using a rock tumbler, specifically; you're going to have to experiment to find the best cutting/polishing media. Once tumbled, most if not all of the plating will be gone. Bare steel rusts quickly. Restoration is the only practical means of getting "fresh" original fasteners, with the correct markings. For a non-stock bike, stainless is tough to beat. [/QUOTE]
