I contacted Anderson and they do not do any prep work. That is way in my initial post I inquired about a company that will do the whole job.

I am located in Western NY, but shipping or driving is possible.

I have an 1883? Boosey & Co Eb that needs replating. Can anyone recommend a service that will do the prep and plating? The instrument is in excellent playing condition. It was completely reconditioned (including valves replated) 2 years ago. Thanks jstraight
