Hello....
I'm trying to electroplate gold (or Nickel & Gold) on stainless steel. This should be applied for eye tear hole.I want to know
is this metals(Ni,Au) have a danger for eye,or not?
 
Nickel wouldn't be a good choice as many people are allergic to nickel. Gold would be good, but wouldn't there be a problem of corrosion between the two different metals?
