Good Day,
Im just wondering about the durability of some of the different types of plating on the metal parts in kits. I know that the titanium finishes are very good as wll as the rhodium ones, but what about chrome, black chrome, satin nickel, satin pearl, and tactile(csusa) platings. I do know that gold plating is too soft to have any decent wear resistance, so i will only be using it for things that wont be handled much. Id like to know what other ones to stay away from. Thanks in advance for your input.
