I had already had the original gas cap chrome plated. Having no desire for it to be damaged, I created a sacrificial gas cap using various pieces and parts from my bucket of metal too good to throw away. My understanding is that the purpose of the cap was to prevent the chrome plating materials from getting inside the tank and covering up the electrolys nickel plating the interior is being plated with.
