Nickel-Chrome Plating

I want to know the chemical properties of 'Nc Pcp Azodyes Chrome VI Nickel Formaldehyde Chloro Paraffins'. I'm informed that this is used for nickel chrome plating on motorcycle rims, etc. I want to figure out which sort of metal would work fine in a pump for such fluid. Thank you!

It's possible that I am confused, Khurram because I don't know what 'Nc' means and have only a vague idea what you mean by 'Pcp', but I think you are confused too. Nickel-chrome plating is done in two or more separate systems: one (or more) for nickel plating, and one for chrome plating, and it sounds like someone has given you a list of a bunch of different chemicals that are used in various places in the nickel plating and chrome plating sequence. Good luck.
