Dear Robotham,
Many thanks for having the particulars of chromium plating sent to me.
I do not know how you manage to succeed in plating steel so that it does not rust on exposed parts. I gave it up some years ago but from the particulars you give me I think I shall have to have another try at it.
Yours sincerely,
S.B.Wilks.
