Citric acid (short term dipping, e.g. 30 minutes, check every 10 minutes), will
not take off nickel - unless there is rust underneath the plating.

I'll be interested in this as well, Adam.  I have a Yankee brace that needs some
TLC and I'd like to preserve the plating that remains, but had resigned myself
