Re: Electroconductive coating/primer S70 1998

donnie,

This is getting very strange.

I took it to the plating guy and when he applied the nickle bath the copper plate flaked off. He states that was a result of the high temperature.

Now, he wants to plate with silver since the bath is room temperature. This guy does a lot of antique car restoration and advised me that those cars originally had silver-plated light buckets.

My questions are 1) won't the silver tarnish, and 2) will a protective coat of lacquer yellow over time?

Thanks again for your assistance.

Bryan
