Can I silver braze nickel plated steel hardware or am I going to have to grind the nickel plating off where I want the braze to stick?
The hardware is your typical nickel plated crap from the generic box stores and the braze filler I was planning to use is 56% silver braze with a melting temp of 1205 Deg F.
I can certainly grind off the plating, but it would sure be easier if I didn't have to. The finished parts would also look better too...
