Same car dash bezel rechroming problem.
I have a simple copychroming kit, some copper and nickel solution. I have some silverspray, I have tried several small pieces of plastic with no success.
I have a home made setup (voltage adjustable supply, using a piece of stainless stell as a anode, everything).
I can succesfuly a small plate a pieces of metal with copper, copy chrome, black chrome or nickel without problem using a wand or dipping with ajusting the electrical output at 4.5-6 volts. But just cant get result with silverspray on plastic. It just turn out "dirty" without any shine, even lightly buffed, seems like plating doesnt stick on at all
What is copper strike and acid copper
does temperature of solution has to be higher than room temp? specific amperage or that depends on the amount of solution used in dipping??
is it the copper solution I have OK, then nickel, then chrome?
Is it possible to do this with a simple kit?
thanks for the help
