Default Re: Can Gold Plug N Plate be used over silver?

Smitty,

Nickel is an excellent base coat for any of the precious metals, but like you said, many people have allergic reactions from it.

I stay away from Nickel as a base metal if it is going to come into contact with someone’s skin. I.E. Eyeglasses, Mouthpieces, Jewelry, etc.

Fine silver is an excellent alternative in this case.

I work at Robins Air Force Base and I am a member of the Ga. Air National Guard.

I'm sure that your son will love Germany. Tell him to have a safe trip.
