Does stainless steal match with polished chrome?
It all depends in what you're talking about. stainless steel in highly polished and reflective as a coating, whereas on bolts its just highly polished but if you buy a stainless steel fridge or stove it looks more like a brushed aluminum, in that case I would say, no, it does not match, however it is very contemporary and complement eachother. Chrome is a coating that when taken care of properly, cleaned and polished regularly, will look very similar to a stainless steel.

How do you tell difference between nickel and stainless steel in handguns?
Stainless steel looks shiny. Nickel is duller and darker in color. Stainless looks like the kitchen sink. Nickel more closely matches, well, a nickel. In reality, it is hard to tell the difference. Highly polished nickel is extremely shiny, like a bathroom faucet. That is nickel. Nickels are not made out of nickel anymore anyway. It is too expensive. Nickels and other shiny coins are an aluminum alloy. The above answer is backwards at least with guns. If it is highly polished nickel, it will be very shiny. It it has a duller more bluish look, then it is stainless steel most likely. Take it to your gunsmith for a positive id.
