Does anyone restore wiper arms for 71B bodys ?? Are the arms plated (nickel ? ) or just natural finish ? Can I just blast em with walnut shells or Baking soda to clean them up ?

I also do them. Natural stainless finish. You can glass bead / soda blast them. It wont arm the finish. Use the finest grade of glass bead.

Nice! Is your work on a case by case basis or is there a flat rate price to restore them?

yes i do them. However there is a final process to give them a satin finish as originals were. fine glass bead leaves a more shiny finish.

I have a friend with a 67 Coronet. He's looking for a stainless finish to match the bright work of the rest of the car. Is there anything off the shelf available?
