Hey Ed!
Were there black helicopters hovering over your shop? Did the transport guys wear dark sunglasses? Did you test the parts
with a geiger counter? This explains allot about your unusual behavior!

Can you post any pictures of the parts? (I'm serious)
With all the high gov. clearance guys on this here site, I'll bet we can figger it out.
We use
zinc chromate primer on our aircraft alum. for starters. the stuff is as hard as nails.
