Why is my gold finish so dull?
I am trying to electroplate gold on some small gold parts using the brush method. I am using 4.5 volts, PNPG12 24 ct with the "detail" wand, after about 20-30 seconds I end up with a very dull / not shiny surface. I am total noob to EP and a shove in the right direction would be so helpful.
Best Regards

Re: Why is my gold finish so dull?
Let me say that there is more chance of me being wrong than right.
It would seem that the surface must be absolutely clean to start with. Then plate and give a nice polish. It worked for me. Best Regards
