Alternatives to flashing for silvered parts

We've been pushing much higher volumes at the plating shop lately and it's been very troublesome to find time to flash all of our silvered parts.
Anybody know any alternatives to flashing for protecting silvered parts?

Fathers or masters
Co-worker doesn't like the idea of de-silvering all of them because he's worried that changing the molecular structure of the surface will affect quality if we ever need to make new mothers off of them.
