Changing gold colour plating to silver at home
« on: July 12, 2011, 06:19:19 AM »
Guys hi there, I have a bag with gold hardware and I was wondering if I could change this hardware (locks, feet) to silver.

Do you know the way?

Thanks!!!!!! :P

The easiest way would probably be to plate right over it. Silverplating kits are relatively cheap and easier than trying to obtain the chemicals any other way. Most jewelry supply stores will have everything you need.
