Default Re: Antique hardware

What\'s the base metal of the part you want to brass plate?

You\'ll probably just need some buffing compound and degreaser. You need to get the base metal highly polished before you brass plate for best results.

Yes, mutilple layers, with polishing between each layer, will result in a richer, thicker plated finish.
