Hello.
Does anyone here practice the unique process of electroplating non-conductive materials?
(Sepecifically, nickel plating resin.)
If a member here does this or knows of a non-member who does please let me know.

It can be done. I had spoke with a shop some years back in Texas that could do it. You would need a clean smooth cast and have a metal rod in it.,Kev

There is even a newer technique that involves coating a non-metal object with a conductive layer and then plating the object with metal.
Simply need to find someone who does it (and at a reasonable price).
