Cad Plate v Alcohol
Cad Plate v Alcohol
(OP)
We cleaned an inkstamp part mark with alcohol and the cad plating came right off, exposing the nickel plating beneath. I was unaware that alcohol would remove cad. Is this just poor plating/poor adhesion?

The alcohol shouldn't have bothered the plating.
It looks like you have some very bad plating. I would get back with your plater as soon as possible.
Fittings in Breweries were Cd plated at on time.

AlBeMet uses a nickel strike plate followed by a Cadmium overcoat. I agree with unclesyd's conclusion.
