Decorative work for interiors
Bright nickel electroplating followed by transparent cataphoretic lacquer (optional).
Surface design
Bright (metallic mirror finish) with a colour similar to that of stainless steel, but richer and with a tendency to yellow reflections (the colour of pure bright nickel).
Used together with burnished stainless steel detail-work, or when use of steel is ruled out or is not indicated.
No transparent lacquer: when surface hardness is imperative or when the end-result must resemble the type of processing that was typical of the 1930's.
Transparent cataphoretic lacquer: when resistance to oxidation is imperative.
Maintenance
Clean with a slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasives or aggressive chemicals. If lacquered, never use solvents or chemical products which may harm the transparent protective film.
