Today I mentioned that I had received my stainless steel bolt assortment 
for reassembling my car. One of the list members on Alpines asked if I 
was going to cad plate them. So, like a big dummy, I ask why would I do 
that? Seems he wasn't really sure either but that some of you folk do it 
and that I should ask.

Ok, so why would anyone cad plate their stainless steel fasteners?  Is 
there a good technical reason or is it cosmetic or what the heck? Us 
inquiring minds wanna know. Oh, I always use a never seize on ss 
fasteners if somehow the cad plating is to prevent galling. Galvanic 
action?

help!!!
