Has anyone ever metal plated a WM kit?

Post by MoFo »

I've been toying with the idea of plating some white metal parts for a more realistic finish - actual chrome for wings and shiny bits, since WM has the wrong sheen. Maybe even try aluminium or magnesium plating on engines and wheels, rather than using Alclad. Unfortunately, most of the info I'm seeing is either commercial-level, or copper/nickel plating for the home user, which I'm not really interested in.

Has anyone ever played around with plating kit parts? Is it feasible? Worth the hassle?
Je ne regrette rien.
