Understood. Nickle is a chemical element, so I doubt that one type of nickle plating is "harder" than another. Nickle is nickle, if that's what it is. On the other hand, nickel is used as a base for chrome, which is a different animal altogether. So you're correct, we need to determine what it is.
I have no experience with Caswell's product nor do I endorse it in any way....but I use their products and they generally do what they say they will. I figured it was worth throwing out there.
In other news, I'm charging up the battery in my Nikon and itching to take pics of the my luger...looking forward to everyone's assessment, comments and information!!
