I made the mistake of ordering mine over the last bank holiday too, sure I remember it taking a little while too, guessing they have an extra long weekend

What do I actually need for zinc plating? I've done electrolysis cleaning at home before, so can I just buy the zinc chemical or what?

Pickle bath 
Smith you can get them on eBay for £50ish and upwards, could make your own up probably a tad cheaper, but for ease £50 won't break the back

Plating kit arrived yet Bedford?
Manta once its been in the bucket it just needs taking out and rinsing off the residue, if there's any stubborn bits left on just use a stiff toothbrush to remove it. If there's any rust left on stuff then chuck it back in for a bit longer

That's odd, if you ordered it from Gaterosplating I got my kit from there, granted I ordered mine over bank hol too and it did take over a week but it should have definitely arrived by now.
I've made 4 other separate ordered with them since all of which have arrived within a few days.
Is there a number to call?

Yeah mate its from them. Fair play as soon as they got the paypal claim notification they posted the tracking number and offered me a full refund or another posted so it should be here by wed at the latest.
