Re: Movement nickel plating
A tutorial would be excellent. Am researching electroless nickel plating for cases at present (aluminum cases) to increase hardness. One potential issue is plating uniformity and finishjrlmsla wrote: ↑March 28th, 2019, 6:08 pm With a pile of Canadian nickels (because they are actually made of nickel as opposed to US nickels which are zincatinaladium or something, a battery, salt, vinegar and some time.
