Default Consumables needed for copy chrome

If I get a copy chrome kit will I need copper ? Looking at the 4.5 gallon size, but not sure yet. Please advise me of any consumables I will need to get started so I can get them now. I want to do steel & aluminum too. What power supply will I need ? Someone Help, so I can order Tuesday. I would like to get Started soon,and still have to build a work station. I know it's going to take a good long while to get any good at this.
Thanks,Dave

If anybody wants send me a pic or two of your work station, (floppyspoppy1@bellsouth.net) if you want give me some advise on how to build it.

Default Re: Consumables needed for copy chrome

You may want to order the combo kit copy chrome / flash copper. The reason being that sometime you are going to come up with stainless or zinc and they will require a flash copper strike coat before they can be plated with the copy chrome. The copy chrome solution is slightly acidic and can attack the base metal.
