Our 1/2 Gallon kit (1 Liter) will plate approx. 150 sq. in. of surface area with a bright nickel @ 1 mil, or 600 sq. in. @ 0.25 mil.

What exactly is this part? To electroless nickel plate, you need to be able to immerse the entire part in the supplied tank...sounds like this might be a little big for a 1/2 Gallon Kit.

I want to plate 8 golf iron heads. Each being about 12-13 square inches.
I would like to do them all at the same time.

Well, the 1/2 Gallon kit comes with a tank that is 7" diam x 6" deep. I doubt you'll get all eight in there.

If you send me an e-mail to webmaster@caswellplating.com, I'll send you the instruction booklet.
