Q. Hello,
What Honda spec is MFZn2-C defined on?
Thanks,

A. Answering my own question...
MFZn2-C is defined on Honda HES D2003-05.
How to interpret MFZn2-C (what the M means, what the F means, etc) is defined on Honda HES A3010-05.
Unfortunately, as best I can tell, the "-C" just means "colored chromate" and doesn't indicate clear or yellow.

Q. MFZN-2S
Thickness = ?

There are no awards for brevity here, Mr. Prudchaya. My guess is either that there's a typo there and what you wrote doesn't specify a thickness though or that it's a Honda spec. where the 2 means 8 microns. But please don't guess :-)

Q. I received drawings from Japan with treatment MFZnh-C
Reading the forum I discovered that C means Yellow, and Zn means Zinc coating but what does "h" mean?
Or [maybe it's] MFZnII-C - what does "II" mean?
Thank you in advance

What does "MFZn8 Colour Cluster" mean?
October 20, 2018Q. Hi, I am sukhwinder, I found the plating specification of MFZn 8 (Colour Cluster). Please help me.

A. Hi sukhwinder. Where exactly did you find it? On a GM drawing, a Honda drawing, or where?
I have no idea what "(Colour Cluster)" means, but if we knew where the spec came from we might have a fighting chance.
