Are those pedals dipped like the real thing?

First we sandblast the pedals to bare metal, then they are painted silver to look like bare metal, then they are dipped in black paint to replicate the factory procedure.

Since they are painted silver first, the "bare metal" areas don't rust like they did from the factory.

The spatter paint is the stuff sold through Ames. It's not an absolute perfect match to the original but it's as close as I have found.
