Default plug-n-pate kit durability?
I'd like to be able to restore some worn metal in gun parts (occasionally without disasembly). Which of these kits would be most durable? Even if I have to re-do it occasionally.
I also have electroless NI but prefer to do this while assembled if possible. Some areas (barrel lugs etc) cannot be removed for conventional plating.

Thanks, Greg

Copy Chrome would be most durable, with nickel following a close second.

Thanks Lance,
Can I plate directly onto steel with the copy chrome kit?
