The invention discloses a process for optimizing the nickel-plated appearance of an ultra-wide stainless steel plate and belongs to the technical field of nickel plating. The process for optimizing the nickel-plated appearance of the ultra-wide stainless steel plate comprises the following steps: step 1, degreasing; step 2, immersion washing with hot water; step 3, washing with sulfuric acid; step4, spray washing with pure water; step 5, nickel pre-plating; step 6, corrective nickel plating; step 7: general nickel plating; step 8, cleaning and immersion washing; step 9, post-treatment; step 10, ultrasonic washing; step 11, blow-drying; step 12, oven-drying; and step 13, auxiliary collecting. By the adoption of the process, the nickel and phosphorus alloying process can be added between the pre-plating operation and the plating operation on a general nickel-plated layer; accordingly, not only can the plated layer deposition speed be improved, but also a lattice of the nickel-plated layer can be remarkably improved, the lattice being compact in structure can be refined, and the plated layer porosity can be reduced; and then, the appearance uniformity and glossiness of the general nickel-plated layer can be guaranteed, the plated layer density, uniformity and bonding strength can be improved, and the corrosion-resistant property can be improved.
