Re: Copy Chrome questions
Mike,
Thanks, I have been using the immersion method with the PNP, however, I have a variable voltage power supply that I am using with it. I have hooked up a small ma meter to keep track of the current, and I am keeping the current at about 50-60 ma per sq inch which translates to 1 amp per 16 sq in. Most of my parts are quite small as in the picture so I am usually only plating about 1 sq inch, so I keep the current at the 40-60 ma range. I guess if I want a thicker plate, I should plate for about 1/2 hour. Some of the stuff I plated for 5 minutes seemed fine when they came out and after polishing, but seemd to haze over in areas after a few days. I'll see how the longer plating stuff turns out.
