Coating tabs options?
 
Chroming does not last it just peels off within a short period of time.. I`d like to keep the same finish and shine, what are my choices?
Anodizing, ceramic coating, powdercoat?

That looks like a QC issue to me. What did Eddie marine say about that?

Eddie marine didn't chrome them. Previous owner had them Coated.

I do think the rams should be mirror polished :)

I think they just look long in the pics, I`ll throw a tape measure on them tomorrow.
Mike, the mounts are shot too gotta redo it all.
MP; Eddie said we don`t chrome ours cause it doesn`t hold up .lol

I`ll have to see if anyone nickel plates locally, thanx
