Galvanize them? I think chrome would be a bit excessive and a bit spendy.

They have sticks of material used to regalvanize areas where welds or cuts have been done on galvanized metal. That hinge pin is so small you may be able to get by without even having them galvanized. You need heat to apply the material, but I'm unsure as to of how much is actually needed.

Good question, I've never actually thought of this area before.
