Have a front seat out of a '40 Tudor and the seat frame is finished in a primer, what color is the frame suppose to be painted, was the slide mechanism painted or was it bare metal?

All the pieces were cadmium plated, then assembled. The handle was nickle plated, the springs left in their natural finish - similar to gun bluing. Mike "Kube" Kubarth

Thanks Kube, perhaps Eastwood has a paint that would simulate cad plating. Does the cad plating include the tubular piece that comes up between the backrests and is covered with a neck tie shaped piece of material?

Eastwood does in fact sell a spray that simulates cadmium. And yes, that tube was plated as well.
