Ok, Ernest, lets seem some photos. I am interested because the process used on mine gave it a soft golden tone rather than the traditional "Chrome" plating look. It apparently depends on how thick the layer of nickel atoms are laid on the aluminum.
Won't have pictures until I get home. The company didn't want to do the electroless plating. For the unfamiliar, a process where they dip aluminum in a solution to give it a coating of zinc, then in a solution that is heated to give a coating of nickel. The guy said that if they miss a spot with the zinc that it would destroy their nickel solution. They did the electroplating instead. I was hoping for the golden tone actually, but the bright chrome will do for now.
