    I am working on a project that requires very high EMI/RFI protection
    and extremely low weight while maintaining excellent strength (and
    low cost too :) ).

    My current feeling is to try to have certain areas of the structure electroless nickel plated in the hopes of increasing the shielding effectiveness without an extreme increase in weight.

    To date I have not had any luck in finding a vendor who has either
    done this before or who has any luck when I have sent samples. Has
    any one in Netland done this? If so, would you mind sharing your
    experience?

    Your help is appreciated.
