What can i put on my belt buckles and buttons because of a nickel metal allergy?

Wax: Avoidance is the best thing, but if that is your favorite belt, try using paraffin wax on it, and it may create a barrier to help prevent problems. Keep in mind that it will have to be reapplied, like the wax on your car.

Nail polish: Apply clear nail polish over the metal. It will last longer and is usually effective.
