At least our painter/media blaster returned the originally painted nuts.
bolts, and washers from the body (don't recall any painted screws) removed
from
the car, clean, unpainted and saved in a ziplock bag that had our name on it.
Hope you are using some sort of cataloging system to determine which hardware
came from where, or you are likely to have a real puzzle on your hands once
the car comes back from painting.
Best of luck on the project.
