I used nickle strips (for connecting batteries) and tried to make the solution with vinegar and salt, but the solution didn't get green, but brownish color?
Be etremely careful with nichrome - and Stainless steel. The chrome will come out and (IIRC) can present as hexavalent chromium which can be quite spectacularly toxic. A good place for nickel is ebay - look for "solar cell tabbing wire" or "battery nickel". Try to get from a seller with 99% feedback or better as you NEED solid nickel and not nickel plated steel :) i am a keen amateur chemist but i am cautious with some of the metal salts - they can be very useful but they can be quite toxic. I do not know wnough about chrome (and safe handling) so it is one of the metal I will not usually use. Same deal with cadmium. Arguably a good metal to plate with - BUT cadmium plating solutions are dangerously toxic. Just because you can use "household / safe" vinegar to make a plating solution, does not mean the solution is safe once you start reacting it with metals to make metal salts. Try or aliexpress for nickel strip, nickel tabbing, nickel anodes or nickel foil. You should strike lucky. Also pure anodes tend to give MUCH better results than "mixed metals".
Hi I have already make after watching your video but the problem after making solution next day it get purple colour ? Why is wrong ? Also after making it won’t come nice green colour !
It's not really a "solvent" - nickel will not dissolve in it. Electricity is used to drive a reaction but it is not really "dissolving it". if it was a solvent in the true sense, you would have nickel dissolved in acetic acid - where if you boiled off the acetic acid/vinegar, you would have elemental nickel again - not Nickel Acetate. The electrolyte created is dilute nickel acetate and sodium chloride.
Great and simple content. I trying this since a year and never reach constant results. The first test like coins are ok, but after when trying to plate parts (bike parts what I really want) soon I always get black lines and patches like oxide and a while it looks like its not even nikkel. The worst part, if I get decent finish on iron or steel it starts to rust in spots about 2 weeks. Any ideas?
@@amazingworkshop I tried reversed electrolisis, acetone dipping, acid etching. Somehow always get the same black oxide. Only thing in my mind is maybe the 99% pure nickkel anode that I have from China is not that pure and have some residue.
@@annonymus4025 have you been able to figure it out? I'm researching the subject too. I suggest you do multiple platings on top of each other. I found out that when they plate steel they start by plaiting it copper to prevent rust, they then plate it nickel then nickel chrome. Perhaps a couple of nickle coats would help. Keep me updated.
Electrolytic nickel plating is hard for non simple shapes. Usually a copper wash/coating is necessary pre plating. Electroless will be a better option for corrosion resistance and it will coat sharp edges and blind holes better. They sel solutions for non electroless nickel plating

Thanks.
Can u tell how make liquid to solid
What vinegar did you use?
Hello. Thank you for your kindness.
keep up with the good work scientist!
Thank you!
ideal current setting? is it 2.5 amp?
I used nickle strips (for connecting batteries) and tried to make the solution with vinegar and salt, but the solution didn't get green, but brownish color?
Strips were nickel plated copper
Same thing happened to me
@@alsemi-back-up579 me too
nickel plated steel
Can u kindly prepare gold plating solution?
Can you do the same process with Nichrome?
Thank you Sir 😊
Love the sound effects!!! Can this also be used for brush plating? thanks.
Yes :)
@@amazingworkshop amazing video, can u plz tell what is the material used as cathode and anode ?
@@jayantaroy3033 anode and cathode is pure Nickel :)
Good video sir, thank you, how to make tin sulphate, share vidio.
Thank you
In the setup the negative was the red cable. Ut then you attached the coin to the black (positive) which wouldn't work?
I noticed that too. I think that the red crocodile should have been tagged with a plus (+) and the black one with a minus (-).
Not a helpful mistake in the video for us newbeez@@georgesquenot1404
Hello, good work, i would like to know where i buy niquel chrome, thankyou.
Thank you! :) You can buy on amazon
will epsom salts work for this?
Sar jo vedyo me bataya hi apne ouska kitan pirac hi our ap esko parsal kar sakte hi purane bath room nal par karna hi
plz tell me ratios of using chemical and nickel plat, thank you
The anode and cathode can be used again?
can we plate iron with this solution
Thanks !!!
i cant find pure nickel near me, should i use nichrome wire?
I haven't tried nichrome wire yet, I don't think it would work.

What is used as cathode?
How much does it take to make a gallon ?
How you made that stickers
With HP LaserJet Color printer :)
Is it possible to put stainless steel or whatever? Is that possible?
Very nice
How to? What’s the ingredients?
How durable is the plating?
The longer it is in nickel, the more resistant it is to mechanical wear.
Can you use a nickel tube?
After setup 4v how long I have to keep the current on
सर ये जो मसीन है मुझे चाहिये कहा मिलेगा
boss,pwede mgturo sayo kung ano ang kagamitan o pagproseso sa pag nickle pwede pkilista nlng boss salamat😊
Can we do Nikel plating on plastic...?
I do not think so
Yes! With graphite powder
Isn't suposed to put the part n the Positive ? since electricity flow from Negative
Is possible to silver
Best
Thank you
Amazing
Thank you! :)
Bos Anong mga kagamitan Yan
if this real and not a trick.......then it's amazing
very good content! Happy birthday!
I have a doubt can you use sulfuric acid to make the solution?
Thank you! :)
I haven't tried it yet, maybe in the next video
In Australia - defacing a coin is a crime. Nice presentation.
OH my 🤭Thanks! :)
is this also for gold?
excelente. gracias!

wait so no nickel sulphate?!
Same question ❓
ماهي المواد نيكل ناري اشتريها وامزجهن كل مراء
nice
Water is hot ??
This is a Vinegar.
Vote for Indian ten rupees coin.👍🏻
GENERALLY NICKEL SULFATE SOLUTION USED AS AN ELECTROLYTE IN THE NICKEL PLATING... BUT IN THIS CASE WHERE IS SULPHATE ?
Magkano po pang nickel
what thise Ni?
This is a Nickel.
Kharkdenge kaise
This solvent is only vinegar and salt that's all

Chrome plating?
No, this is Nickel Plating
I´m pretty sure you devalued those coins.

Black lines and patches usually occur if the part is not completely degreased. Try dipping in the activator first, then nickel plating.

How long did u leave the nickel plates in the vinegar for?
You said black crocodile is plus but after that you put it in minus part of power source 😂
Finally a happy video..... I like crocodiles 😂
Haha, thanks! 😀

minus red and plus black? you have no any knowledge of electronic.
TALK MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!

Can i plating like zinc barrel for nickel plating ?
