How to nickel plate at home - a detailed DIY guide to simple electroplating restoration.

WARNING! Before following the steps in this video, I suggest you do you own research regarding health & safety of handling the solutions. I have heaps of vintage restoration projects planned for this channel and so I decided I need to learn how to nickel electroplate successfully! Here I show you the process of making a nickel acetate solution and then we nickel plate an old steel key as well as an experiment on a polished piece of copper. Nickel strips for plating are pretty cheap and available here.. https://amzn.to/2NezS7p (Australia) https://amzn.to/3dwmhTE (US) https://amzn.to/3k6Pzt7 (UK) It's a pretty easy process using stuff you've probably already got at home!
