1.1 This practice summarizes well-known, generally practi-cal methods for producing adherent electrodeposits of nickel on nickel.
1.2 Electrodeposits of nickel on nickel are produced, for example, to improve the performance ofdecorative coatings, to reclaim electroplated parts that are defective, and to resume nickel electroplating after interruptions in processing. Interrup-tions may be deliberate, for example, to machine the electrode-posit at an intermediate stage in the electrodeposition of thick nickel coatings. The interruptions may be unintentional, for example, resulting from equipment and power failures.
