Default Corrosion Resistance of Copy Chrome

I need to rechrome worn and pitted chrome-plated brass and bronze parts for marine applications. The finished parts must resist corrosion in outdoor salt water environments. Will Copy Chrome resist corrosion as well as chrome plating?

Yes it will. The corrosion resistance of chrome (a very porous metal) comes from the nickel plate under it. Copy Chrome is a modified nickel plate.
