Magnesium finishes needed

I have a magnesium intake manifold and valve covers from a Porsche V8. These parts were previously painted and the paint is now flaking off in large sheets. I want to refinish and need help on the techniques and processes required to accomplish this.

Take a look at the mil spec finishes and call a plater in your area to see what they recommend or can do.

Specifically Mil-C-3171 and one other one that has Magnesium in the title
