Look at caswell.com for electroless nickel plating kits. If the copper is just a conductor, I don't care about tarnish on the non-mating surfaces. Where the bars meet, or the wires attach, polish the copper and use an ant-ox compound. I like brass bolts and nuts with flat brass washers.

I have never tried solder dipping, but I found a recipe for a plating solution online and got the materials from Amazon.
