Question copy chrome and rectifiers

Hi guys.
I am planning on buying the 3 gallon copy chrome setup and the professional brush plating system.
My questions are:
* How large of an area can be plated using the 3 amp rectifier that is included in the brush plating system, using immersion plating?
* Can the larger rectifiers be used to plate small parts such as bolts, emblems bezels etc...? If it can't, then could I plate several small parts at one time to increase the area and still get an even coat across all items with the items being different sizes?
* Is it worth it to own both the flash copper and the acid copper kits? How thick can the flash copper be built up? Or is it better to own just the acid copper kit. I am looking at restoring old car emblems and hood ornaments that are pitted. I will be filling the pits with solder.
Thanks in advance for any help.
