Thanks everyone for your comments. I will replaced the galvanized metal to avoid the zinc issue.

As for re-phospohoring and aluminzing, we have the equipment to do that coming from RACS later this year. We also have a person who visited RACS for two weeks and learned the process. At some point we will deal with the issues of getting this equipment converted to operate on US power standards and with the environmental issues.

The vast majority of the dud tubes out there are still under vacuum, so the existing phosphor is most likely OK.

Bent guns are not available now - we plan to replace the heater and cathode in existing guns.
