Re: Any Nickel Plating Reports

The job was going well until i had a contamination problem which spoiled the electroless solution ( the pot i used had aluminium rivets holding the handles on and found that some parts had stainless steel inserts which had the old zinc coating on the normal metal under the stainless insert).
I did have a problem with the nickel building up on the stainless steel pot i was using.
I will have to buy some more to finish the job and i am thinking of buying the normal nickel plating set up.
Its all trial and error and practice.

over all i am happy with the results.
