Rich, Eastwood has a spray coating that looks just like zinc plating. I have used it on my H ash trays.

Speaking of smokers, does anyone have any recommendations on cleaning and restoring the insides of yucky automobile ashtrays? I don't think that tar is soluble in aqua regia. I was able to disassemble the one in the front of my C-300 so I could wire brush it, but was not satisfied with the results.
