Ron,

Just wondering here as I'm sure others have, but is it possible to treat an entire body this way? If so, what are the ups and downs of it and what would it cost?

Thanks, Steve

a little off the subject but, if something is finished in..lets say stainless, how will it hold up in a marine environment?

It will hold up just like stainless steel because it is Stainless steel


Steve a whole body can be plated, I am working this out with another cobra owner for show purposes only. I don’t recommend it for 2 reasons, the first being cost, to get the entire body plated in our seamless aluminum would cost as much a kirkum body, the second is maintenance, because this is real aluminum you will have to polish it often to keep it looking nice. I recommend to use our process to highlight areas or when a metal finish is wanted on a part that cant be purchased in metal. But if you want an aluminized fiberglass cobra body just call Jay and we will set it up
