Hello,
I got mine bare (unplated)from Mojo.I do not like the copper-plating wich is comon under the Nickle-Plating.So I use the bare unplated covers and get the nickel direct onto the nickle-silver-cover.

I'm curious to know what sort of finish you're getting. Those covers look like the unplated AllParts humbucker covers which would require a copper layer to get a smooth base for nickel plateing. How's it done?

I use the Mojo tele raw nickel silver covers, I just polish them on a wheel using Fabulustre, it puts a real nice polish on the metal that looks plated when you're done....

I think you get those because you just like to polish things. When the summer rolls around you can polish my car if you want.
