Need a Cadmium plating source
I have some engine parts off of my '77 that need to be re-cadmium plated. My chrome plating source doesn't Cad plate. Can anyone recommend a company who does this in a timely manner?

The problem with Cadium plating is that it is an enviromental diaster waiting to happen. Extensive use of cyanide and other dangerous chemicals. There aren't many people who do "true" cadium plating anymore.
Fairly small items, maybe up to the size of a brake booster, can be plated with the 1-1/2 gallon Copy Cad Kit from Caswells.

Good Luck!
