Default Kit questions

First, I am wanting to plate motorcycle parts (steel). Most are small. 1 part is raw steel 6" X 4" X 1/2" the questions is can I use the copy chrome kit or will I need the electroless chrome or the copy chrome kit to plate this? I also have a spring front end that is chrome but has some rust spots. If I clean these up and use the copy chrome kit how durible is the finish? And how will does it blend in with the curent chrome?

Thanks

Jim

Copy Chrome will plate directy over steel.

The finish is as durable as the original chrome. It should blend in fine.
