Sceotan.
Well spotted, most of the maille was riveted aluminum with a grey colour developed and supplied by GDFB, (blatent plug), for the movie.
Nice to get something right.
I have not yet seen the movie but hope to soon.

Sulla and all
Please take care.
The only safe way for anyyone to strip zinc is to have it done by a company who has an acid stripping bath, this will be an electroplater or furniture stripper.
I am aware this will cost but it should not be a vast amount.
What price your health!
