We've got some banjo tuning machines that are chrome plated, and (for esthetic reasons) a customer wants them plated with
copper. I did a little searching with Google, and found various methods, of which electroplating looks the best. Any
comments or suggestions? Will the copper stick to the chrome? Other problems that I'm not anticipating?

Thanks,

Alden

was green.... copper will look terrible after you plate it, when you
polish it looks nice..... but then it keeps on tarnishing and looks like

instruments to look line was brass?????
