Re: Iron Plating

What I am looking for is a company that can plate iron onto a copper core. Everybody seems to be able to plate nickel and chrome, but I am having trouble finding a source to plate iron. Here is a link to a site that talks about the plating process of a Solder Iron tip. The pictures for it are about 1/3 the way down the page. I would like to do either technique listed.
