Posted: Wed Aug 17, 2011 9:12 am Post subject: plated spinner

I have a spinner that someone had plated a long time ago.  Most of the plating had come off.  Then it was painted.  When I stripped it to repaint it, I found bits and pieces of the plating still there.  I tried removing the plating by sanding, didn't work.  Tried a wire wheel on an edge to see if I could pick up the edge, didn't work.  

Question:  How does one remove this plating?

If it is truly nickel-chrome plated, the only real solution is to take it to a good plating shop that will “unplate” it. Much like stripping old chrome plating from an automobile bumper. What remains is very well adhered to the base metal and will not be removed with any other mechanical process.

 

From what you describe, the original plating process was not done properly. A good speed ship that has access to nickel-chrome plating will do an excellent job.
