I bought the 50KV kit from caswellplating.com

I also purchased a cheap toaster oven large enough for the radio.

After stripping the case I used the electrolytic method of rust removal using calcium carbonate (washing soda 1cup/gal) and a hefty power supply.

Then I did an iron phosphate dip to corrosion proof it and provide better adhesion for the powder coat.

I think you can get a shinier finish with regular spray paint, but the powder coat is very durable and scratch proof.
