>Has anyone used the old "plate-it-yourself" hobbie gunsmith method to plate
>lyre pedals?

>From my experience, good metal plating demands too much care to do it
yourself.  For good result you have to buff all previous plating off, put a
good coating of copper, polish it, then put another layer of nickel and
repolish.  When professionnaly done, the re-plated pedals just come out like
new.
