Sorry if this is redundant, but I'm new to the electroplating and have scads of questions. I'm trying to read through all the old posts, but that is a formidable task.

Initially, I wanted to try replating the handles of a silver service and thought I'd try to do it using the wands and the plug and plate kits. It worked very well and I think I'm addicted to it. Anyway, I have the lid of an old serving dish that appears to have been silverplated on top of copper plate, on top of what I assume it nickel, and underneath it all is potmetal. In some areas the nickel is flaking off and pitting. I'm not yet ready to purchase a sandblaster and wondered if there is anyway to get the nickel off without one?

Thanks,

Majar
