Default Plug-n-plate

Hello all,

I am new here but have used the Plug-n-plate kits with great success on random objects and small firearm parts. Hope I am posting in the correct forum with my question...

I have recently plated a few small firearm parts with the p-n-p nickel and gold kits and it turned out great! But now I am having second thoughts on the gold and was wondering what to do to remove it? The rest of the gun (makarov) is high polished blued and I would like to restore the parts I plated (trigger and safety) to black again. Please let me know how this can be accomplished. I don't have the black chrome p-n-p kit but have thought about using that as a possible solution?

Thanks.

If you want to remove the gold, just polish it off. It is soft and thin and should come off with hand polishing, same for any brush plated finishes. thnx charlie@overlandplating.com
