    Sure can, that is kind of a normal process. You can use a little
    nickel underneath or you can just use the silver over the copper. If
    you are just planning to do a small piece or just a few pieces then
    get a solution already made up, if you have an enormous amount to do
    then you could consider mixing your own. Let me know if you would
    like to join an electroplating group, or need info on a couple of
    suppliers for made up solutions at a reasonable price Clint D
