Zinc Plating

Hi to all,

Bought myself a home zinc plating kit so had a go today, here are some pics of the results, quite easy to use and I am pleased with the results.

Most of the items were finished in a blue passivate, but some I finished in a yellow pasivate which does not show up well in the pics but the blue finish gives a clear blue bright finish where as the yellow finish gives a gold with hints of red and green.

The best way to get a decent finish is to clean / polish / de rust the item to be plated before you start as any imperfections will always be in the final result.

Interesting stuff, was that the kit used in ccm? keep us posted on how it lasts and how much abuse it takes.
