I wanted to convert to Nickel bits today. For some parts this
meant a second go in the nickel stripper solution.
The chrome stripping involved caustic soda so more care
Needs to be taken. The Chrome is definitely harder to strip
And takes twice as long as nickel. Then some nickel stripping where
The parts had been nickelled as a base plating.
See before and after photos below. Still to polish though and deep clean before starting
To Bright nickel plate with the kit that came today.
