I don't know what they're called, but there is a place out sockburn/hornby way that does it. I think they charge around $1 per KG of the item being dipped.
More than that I couldn't tell you.

You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.

Nah greg is an electroplater. Zinc plating uses an electric current to draw the plating to the item. Galvanizing is just dipping the item in a monster tank of molten zinc. Galvanising gives better protection as it gives a thicker layer of protection.
