Mike A sent me this link on zinc plating. He got the info from a discussion over on a Ford restoration site. Might be an idea to try on a lantern with a decent frame rather than hi-temp paint. I thought it might be worth passing on. I may play around with this....could be fun to try at any rate. A marine sacrificial anode would also work for a zinc supply. Doug
