Rookie_Rover,

I see this is only your third post here and let me say "Welcome to this Forum." I am not an expert on plating and have seen guns with nickel plating peel like an onion skin over time. Perhaps some of our astute posters here can diagnose the problem. I have heard much depends on the bare metal perparation prior to plating, the electrolyte "soup", the electrical current applied and enough time for plating to take hold. I am sure it is discouraging to see plating fall off a prized gun. I hope some more knowledgeable folks can give you a cure.

Adam
