Can I redo Zinc plate chromate?

Can I replate a part thats already been plated

Usually, Steven. It is possible for the base metal to get too pitted from repeated plating to be replateable without polishing or special methods, or to have other issues, but in the majority of cases the parts can be relatively simply stripped and replated.
