Scott 16 - Restoration Begun
#21

Like I said, there is a process to plate with copper - first, but it isn't necessary unless you are filling holes. Solder can also be used to fill holes.

Waxing a chrome chassis is a good idea. Carnuba (regular car wax) is what I use also.

If you are interested in the plating process, Caswell has a good book. It is included with most orders but can be purchased separately.
