What should the finish be on the basket inside a E&J carbide generator?

I know the basket in the repro generator has black screen, but what was original?

I have an NOS(new old stock) one on the shelf, let me go and take a look see.

Oops, my NOS carbide generator is a Corcoran, and the basket appears to be galvanized if that helps any.

Galvanized in mine x 2 too, with a bit of white powdery stuff on it.

I had an E and J on my 13. It was galvanised too.

Well, I have my basket de-rusted.
Now how about galvanizing... Anyone have any ideas?
Has anyone done any spray cold galvanizing?

Is the underside of the upper tank galvanized also?

Given the conditions that your basket will have to endure (if you're planning on using it, I wouldn't trust the cold galvanizing. Take it in for a professional job.. You're obviously trying to do the right thing to get it correct, you might as well do it right.

Have fun and keep cranking.

Does anyone know about the underside of the top tank?
