Does the nickel plating on the dietz affedt its grinding capabilitys compared to a standard anodized one? ---

The nickel plated throws I’ve had (54) aren’t as good at grinding as standard coating/blasting ---

The finish on my MMN is great for grinding. But, that nickel plating on the Dietz look like it would be smooth, so I don’t think it would be that great. Is it electroplated? It’s gonna add a layer that would if anything smooth out the surface treatment a bit, just as the nature of the treatment of adding a layer would to anything. It sure is pretty though! ---

I have a nickel Dietz. Its not the best grinder, but if your skin is real dry it will grind a little bit. ---

the Nickle plating does affect the grinding of the Dietz, even though it’s Pyramatte finish. ---
