It is not paint, nor is it black Zinc.. Black paint is simply Black paint (S-4 ford finish). Black Zinc did not exist in the 1930's and is more durable than Black oxide but scratches easy, and has a goldish green tint to it. Black Oxide is all by itself. It is not the most durable coating but sure looks pretty when Fresh! I have found a product named Barricade meant for firearms to be a excellent product to protect Black Oxide from rusting. I just sent off 288LBS to be black Oxide plated today..
A black oxide plater would be easy for you to find.. A Cadmium plater that does a sufficient job is another story.. Then you run into things like fine thread carriage Bolts. Every Carriage bolt with the exception of 4 on a 1932 is fine thread.. Fine thread carriage bolts are near non existent these days, and we have to have them made
