Hi everyone,
I am trying to achieve the Black Chrome effect on some die-cast drum parts. I purchased a Copper/Nickel combination Plug-n-Plate kit through Caswell, and did receive good support from the company via telephone. I was told to apply a flash copper layer, then a nickel layer, then the Black Krome. The original lug was brass coated, but I stripped this off the outside of the part (the lug is hollow). The flash copper went on very well, but I cannot get the nickel to go over the flash copper. Can anyone help me? Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Joe Migliaccio |
