Jason, you are a magician and a real gem. I've been absolutely blown away by a couple of your videos. Easiest decision I've made to buy your formula. Thanks for sharing the genius at a low and very worthwhile price. I have been watching all the guides showing different ways to make a paint, and none of them have worked for me.
This is very helpful. I just started electroforming and in the past 24hrs have spilled my little conductive pot twice (in different locations). Thought there has to be a (better) recipe somewhere and came across this video....and now have purchased 3 of your instructional videos.
Just placed my order yesterday and I'm so looking forward to using it. I'm really interested in the detail you're able to capture. In other lessons I've seen, the paint was thick and needed 2 (or more) coats. With brushing it on, waiting time and losing a lot of the detail, the results looked ok, but nothing like what you've shown in the demo. It's worth it just for time saved alone....was searching a long time for a thinner paint formula. For anyone hesitating because of materials and availability - I can order them no problem from Canada (for the conductive paint formula). Thanks so much for sharing what you've learned, hopefully it leads to a lot of fabulous possibilities! = )
Thanks for all the information man! I purchased this recipe and have emailed you questions a few times with no response. 1st... no pre-sealing necessary anymore if using this recipe with organics right? 2nd... can you advise amounts of the bonding for strengthening an object? Insects, leaves and such come out too delicate after plating for me to work with. Thanks!
Made recipe purchase 7-12-22 1:15 p. est. I am currently waiting for recipe to show up. Certainly very hopefully this works as well as you have shown. Thank you.
Hello Jason, just purchased your formula recipe and cannot wait to try this! Thank you for your generous wisdom on electroforming i'm really enjoying it so far but there are some kinks I need to fix and hopefully this will help improve things. Great videos thanks
Keep in mind, when reading high resistances, holding the leads to the item with your fingers produces a false reading, because you are conductive. Were it otherwise, lightening would not be a danger to you.
You should try water based grout sealer and graphite 50/50. On highly porous items just seal first with grout sealer. Took me years to discover it. My gold roses are perfect.
Jason, did you know that Costco sells latex gloves? You should consider buying and using them. You never know the long term effects of these chemicals.
Jason I appreciate the effort you put into sharing this information. I have purchased several of your information packs on First Density Materials and have a few questions which I have sent to First Density Materials and yourself personally and it’s over 2 weeks now with no reply so I would appreciate a response please. Also the main ingredient in the conductive paint is not easy to get here in Australia, have you considered selling it thru FDM? Thanks Ian
Great video and good product . Worked well for me also had success myself with the same solvent as you but a different plastic polymer. Keep up the great work. Maybe a glycol brightener solution ;-)
Hello, I am considering buying the formula; are the materials listed as chemicals? I don't live in the US, so any branded items listed as ingredients I may not have access to.
Thanks for asking, I also cannot get brand items. Sadly many diy plating solutions also ask for things like “root kill” or something. Doesnt exist here =\
@@AdithyaReddy15 hello, could you sell me the conductive paint formula ?? i'm from brazil and i can't find an efficient conductive paint in my country. thank you
I'm trying to find a way to create a pitted surface that I can then copper plate. Was thinking of putting salt in the conductive paint then when dry lightly sanding the surface to expose the salt and then dissolving the salt out with water leaving a pitted surface. The problem is salt dissolves in one of the components of your conductive paint. Any suggestions on what I could replace that component with?
Hi Jason, been following you and learning from you for years. I’m finally able to put it to use. How do I go about purchasing the organic materials conductive formula? Your current link seems to not be working.
Hello, Jason! I wish to purchase ur recipe of this solution and brighter as well, but I’m wondering will I be able to get ingredients in Malaysia? It is smth that can purchase on aliexpress for example?
I bought the formula but wasn’t able to buy that ingredient yet and wanted to go back today and now can’t find the website that I was on and that name .. how can I find it without having to purchase the formula again?
Lol “it’s a little tiny flower thing,” it’s most likely Queen Anne’s lace, also known as wild carrot because it’s roots are actually carrots! It does have some look-alikes, and I can’t tell from this video, but mostly Queen Anne’s lace (:
Bought the recipe but my paint turned out extremely thick and cracks up when drying. I made the first ratio (4 to 6) but when I dipped, it globs up and doesnt dry evenly. Any tips?
I bought this recipe but for some reason mine comes out really thick. I’ve tried it numerous times and when I dip anything in it, it comes out goopy. Can someone please help me figure out what I’m doing wrong?
Been doing this as a hobby project, because I'm bored. I'm having trouble getting an even plate (using vinegar + copper for copper plating), and even to build up any thickness at all. Any hints how to improve this ?
Jason, .. I'm from the UK and was wondering if I can get the formulas you offer for these conductive paints in the UK? ... Sometimes I watch videos from America and can't get hold of the formulas. I love your video's by the way, very educational and your very good at what you do. Thanks for keeping us all amused by your art work and look forward to your reply. Thanks mate ;-)
I love all your videos. I have watched them several times. I just purchased the organic solution. I am having trouble electroforming kale. I dried it, modpoge it and painted it with graphite. Would not plate the whole leaf. Did plate the edges. The plating was dark. Any tips?
Since you're a bit mad (i.e., mad scientist), I'll share my "I don't know what the heck I'm doing, but I'll try it" experiment for you to consider: I use a gallon or larger container and don't bother surrounding items with my anode (e.g., copper wire) material. Part of this is because, as stated in the video, it dissolves. This may mean I have to replace the whole thing because it thinned out in the middle of a coil. First, I try to put my anode material in a polypropylene bag, which catches a lot of the debris rolling off the anode and which, otherwise, would settle on the bottom of the tank. For an experiment, I drill about a seventy holes in a sports bottle and filled it with the scraps from my worn anodes. I ran a 6 gauge rod down into the mess and placed the bottle full of copper scraps in the poly bag. It works, but still eats at the 6 gauge wire too, but I just push it in farther until I have to chop it up and make it part of the scrap collection. I replace it with a new rod, but I only have to have one long enough enough to go to the bottom of the bottle and to project up out of the solution, so I can attach a lead to it. The lumberjocks woodworking web sight shows some of the wood turnings I've plated using my far from an expert approaches: www.lumberjocks.com/projects/348297 PS I'll be ordering the product of your experiments, if only to contribute to keeping you going.
Hi Jason, I just purchased the conductive paint recipe via video description link. I provided my cell number for contact instead of email. I only received an order confirmation text, no PDF or link for paint recipe. I emailed you thru your website. Can you pleasr send me the PDF or link to the email provided in that email? I'm really excited and can't wait to make this paint! Thank you!
If your plate is sufficient, you can use a torch to burn the insides if you're concerned about that. There's a video on youtube of someone doing blackberry like that.

I'm hoping to get your formula to be airbrushable! Thanks for sharing!
Your conductivity measurements and comparisons would be much more accurate if you maintained a consistent distance between the meter probes.
Keep in mind, when reading high resistances, holding the leads to the item with your fingers produces a false reading, because you are conductive. Were it otherwise, lightening would not be a danger to you.
Beautiful work.
Fantastic!
does this recipe come in your electroforming for begginners book? Thank you so much for all your amazing videos of knowledge.
Will buy tomorrow! Thanks so much!
I love it 🥰 Thank you for sharing with me ❤️🤟🏻💋
Thanks a Jason , another answer to my question ❤🔥🙏
Are the ingredients easy to find/source? So if I buy it I’m in USA.
You should try water based grout sealer and graphite 50/50.
On highly porous items just seal first with grout sealer.
Took me years to discover it.
My gold roses are perfect.
Thanks. Always looking for tips and tricks.
So seal first with grout sealer then cover with grout sealer and graphite?
How is the hardness ? And adhesive strength , flaking peeling after polishing?
Bought it... love it!
Are the ingredients readily available in the UK? No point in buying the recipe if I can't use it.
where do I buy this recipie... I want to do flowers,
Hi Jashon, I Love Trees, and find it amassing
Jason, did you know that Costco sells latex gloves? You should consider buying and using them. You never know the long term effects of these chemicals.

After your electroplating, is it durable? I want to make electrodes from 3d prints to cut steel using ECM.
Awesome I just purchased two recipes
So im suuuuper new to this. I had a kit long ago, but sold it. Do you have a tutorial on supplies or bare necessities?

Tks for the offer, but, the chemicals used are "normal"?
i'd like to get it, but, any idea about to get the components outside USA?
generic PMMA worked for me, instead of the branded chemical Jason used.

I purchased this andcant open file can you help me?
Your plating looks so bright are you using brightener, or for delicate electroforming are you using a fresh bath .. thanks
With organics you need brightener because you would have a hard time tumbling.
Is it cheap to make? Like $10 per gallon
Hi Jason! I've purchase the conductive paint recipe. I've sented you a pm on facebook for questions about, but I think you have not see it yet!

Can "ZEP Commercial Acidic Toilet Bowl Cleaner" as sulfuric acid for mixture with distilled water and root killer?
Rooto works good and has been tested many times by home chemists for purity. I would search the purity of Zep before using it.
I am using sulfuric acid sold for unclogging a plumbing plug now so, if the same, yes.
I am absolutely interested in purchasing the formula, but may I get the ingredients here in germany?
Did you ever find out?
@@troebeliewoep yes, I got everything
Too bad the one ingredient is very difficult to find, and an expensive magnetic stirrer is required.
But if you leave all the moisture trapped in the plant, like the succulent, I would expect internal mold or bacterial rot or degradation
