I plan on reusing some fasteners without plating, mainly chassis stuff that haven't been rusted too badly and will be painted over after assembly like bartamos said. Alaska (at least where I am) isn't too bad for corrosion (too freaking cold?
), but some bolts were too sketchy in the thread area to comfortably reuse. Then there's the ones that I remove by tightening them till they break, rather than going to the trouble to try and get them unscrewed.
That exhaust dressing paint link looks interesting, and fairly easy.
