Nickel can be plated directly onto steel. Actually acid-copper can not be plated directly onto steel, but there is another process for that. If I want to copper plat a chassis I have to nickel plat it first otherwise the acid in the copper bath dissolves the steel - and ruins the copper bath.

The nickel is polished very smooth and then chrome is applied. It is like a clear coat on a painted surface, but has lots of imperfections so it will not protect by itself.
