Please have him start with the Metal Finishing Guidebook. It is inexpensive, broad in scope, and highly topical. There are so many issues, like safety, environmental responsibility, acid zinc vs. alkaline zinc vs. alloy zinc, chromating in compliance with RoHS, etc., that it would be foolish for him to try to start without at least one good book under his belt. Good luck!
