Hi everyone-
I bought another base plate from Sidewindercomputers.com and am going to nickel plate it as a project. I know that lapping the heatkiller resulted in WORSE performance, so I will avoid that.
My question is whether I should polish the copper before I plate it, resulting in a more aesthetic end product.
What do you think? Plate it raw or polish it up?
