What was the factory finish on the hood latch? There is 0 evidence of it ever being painted, but looks like maybe cad or zinc plated? What are guys doing to freshen theirs up?

Black zinc. And then painted black if applicable.

Thank you! Upon closer inspection of the back side, I can see a small area of the black zinc, between the mounting holes. Now to figure out a way to clean and strip this thing and come up with a finish.
