OK that makes sense for the nickle but the acid copper says to mix with one gallon of distilled water, 12oz of battery acid, and enclosed bottle of brightener. The kit came with two bags....Is the label wrong? The weight of the bag is 3 lbs. This will only make about 3 gallons of plating bath when both bags are added with two gallons of distilled water. It doesn't add up. Should there be more crystals or is the label wrong. Plus when I put the part I flashed coppered into the acid copper it became discolored immediatley before I even hooked up the current.
Thanks
John
PS. Do I even need the acid copper or can I build up with flash copper (which works extremely well)
