Just one more thing
I've always suspected that the black chrome tops were
originally meant to be black paint tops until someone
decided the satin black was not only prettier but also
cheaper than the then common black paint! It would
have served as a great base layer to prevent brassing
as long as the base coat adhered properly. ZI I
believe painted their silver chrome Contarex tops, not
sure though.
