Subj: Clarinet plating rubbing off
Date: Fri, 10 May 1996 20:49:30 -0400

Howdy all - Got a question for ya. My LeBlanc Infinte's nickel plating
has begun to rub off in certain spots, revealing a copper-colored alloy
underneath. As of now, it's only some small areas, around the keyholes
and one other spot. It's not a problem now, but could become one.
Would you recommended that I simply get it replatted with nickel every
few years, or is there another substance, such as silver, that will last
significantly longer?

Thanks all!
