Abstract

An article is coated with a multilayer coating comprising a nickel layer deposited on the surface of the article, a tin-nickel alloy layer deposited on the nickel layer, and a refractory metal compound, preferably zirconium nitride, deposited on the tin-nickel alloy layer. The coating provides the color of polished brass to the article and also provides abrasion and corrosion protection.
