Thumbs up Re: 24k gold plating kit

Hello,
If you want to plate on diecast:
1. Buff and polish diecast.
2. Copper strike- Copper under plate is your barrier to diecast.
3. Copper plate (100 microinches).
4. Buff/polish if you wish.
5. Clean/acid activate.
5. Plate nickel (100 microinches).
6. Activate acid dip.
7. Plate gold.
Good Luck,
NOL4154
