    Price may seem expensive for the 4/5 module complete kit, but this wouldn't be for just doing 1-2 items and letting it get dusty. Ask around for how much shops charge to do this service. Then compare that with the price vs how many jobs you can complete with it to equal the price for getting started.

    • @GoldPlatingServices
      @GoldPlatingServices  4 роки тому +30

      You put it very well. Getting a service done like this is typically around $300-$600. Our raw cost to plate this slide was roughly $30.00, so the kit pays itself off very quickly if the business is there. Thanks for your great comment!

    Gunsmith Tip: Internals should avoid the gold. Otherwise it slows down the action, and can cause misfires, ftf, and stovetoping. I’ve been dipping quite a few lately for customers so before I strip a Glock slide I sandblast away the oem finish but make sure to leave the DLC/nitrate over the internals so it won’t plate there👌

      You can do the calculation in a few different ways I'm not a chemist but the easiest I think is to calculate the molarity of a solution and then on a sensitive scale measure the weight difference before and after gold plating and do the calculation of how many moles of gold you used by plating using the weight difference and then recalculate the molarity.
      Of course you would have to have some idea of how much material you are depositing based on your surface area, plating thickness and the molecular geometry vs time, molarity of solution, current and voltage or your deposition rate. That's gonna be a bit more complicated if you want it down to the micron/nanometers of material like this guy. Again not a chemist but just how I believe the basic math behind this is going to work. It requires some level of research even if you aren't going through the trouble of solving all these equations yourself and just doing this by trial and error and experience

    • @GoldPlatingServices
      @GoldPlatingServices  3 роки тому +28

      You can plate 320 square inches of area to 10 microinches thickness, with 1 gram of gold. 1 Gallon contains 8g of fine-gold. We sell gold replenisher, which comes with 1g per fluid ounce of solution. This replenisher is poured directly into the bath to maintain the gold content and keep the deposition rate up. At high gold content, the bath will deposit 10 microinches in ~2 minutes in the gold bath.

    Okay so I've been using all your solutions for some years. It's common practice for me to poor all the solutions back into a air tight bottle each night because I figured some chemicals could evaporate such as chlorine which I believe you use in woods nickel strike and want my solutions to last as long as possible but in a larger setup like this, how do you keep your system air tight (or do you) if you are going to keep a heavy amount of solution layed out like that or do you also seal the top to every container each night?

    • @GoldPlatingServices
      @GoldPlatingServices  3 роки тому +1

      The Gold Strike is always better as you can see the strike and know at that point if you have done the electrocleaning and striking properly. Woods works fine but you cannot see it and will not know if you are going to get proper adhesion until after the plating is done and its flaking off.

    Plating for extended periods of time even at lower than normal voltage in my experience typically creates burn marks yet I didn't see you have that problem gold plating for 15 minutes. When I do more items like jewelry and a typical ring for instance at 4v for more than 5-10 minutes (I like to apply thick coats as well being that they are items worn) blacken especially where my copper wire which is what I use touches the item to be plated. The only solution I've found is constantly moving it around and rotating the ring around where the copper (-) line touches the item. Is this because I don't use bubble agitation or am I missing something I should be aware of here? When it happens I typically have to use some #0000 steel wool to remove it and start over on those areas. Always love learning something new and look forward to a reply. I'll definitely be checking out your new PRO kit here.

      The best way to get into plating is by getting a smaller machine that will benefit you in the long run and you can make your money back with. It is like investing money so you can get more money out of what you put into it. Once you have plated with the smaller machines maybe you would want to move on to the bigger machines and doing more expensive plating.

    Isn’t titanium nitride a better alternative to gold plating because of the durability?

  • @Dixler683

    What do I know? Nothing...but if you pull the object out of the nickel bath doesn’t nickel oxide form immediately preventing subsequent nickel from adhering?

    Isn't it better to do Titanium nitride in gold color. As 24k gold is extremely soft and wears off guns quickly?

    How do you prevent the soul ions from entering the holes and channels on the underside of the slide? Is the coating not enough to mess you p the tolerances?

      Hopefully you find the Chrome kit and the Goldstar kit. They both will help you plate stuff on cars.

    What anodes do you use for each plating procedure do you use the corrosponding metals or some type of universal ones?

    Looks beautiful but I can’t imagine this would hold up very well over time if you actually shot the thing regularly

    • @GoldPlatingServices
      @GoldPlatingServices  3 роки тому

      They actually hold up surprisingly well! We plate them very thick and even people who use them daily do not have it wear off for many years. If it's used occasionally, it would stay gold plated a lifetime.

      @@GoldPlatingServices cool. I’ve seen other “gold” guns but this wasn’t the method used. They are typically show pieces with little actual use but some older examples have very heavy wear where the gold has all but been stripped.

    I like the woods strike. On a mechanical part like this your top finish is absolutely doomed if you put a softer aggregate (gold) plate under a harder material like bright nickel. It adhere good, but it'll scratch through the nickel better. This is similar to the mistake on colts original M16 hard chrome bolts. They struck it with copper under it and it flaked off and clogged up the gas system.

    So do the solutions work multiple times or is it 1 and done then you have to remove and refill it? Can I just leave it there forever and use it when I want to or does it need to be air tight? Can I use a brush plating wand, have it plugged in and just dip it in those solutions because I'm cheap as shit and wouldn't want to pour out more for the brush. Of course making sure that the brushes don't cross contaminate. Also after and in-between solutions are you just dipping it in water? One looks like its soap water ?

    If only I could learn to do this I would make a business buying guns, plating them then sell for more $$$ lol
    And charge to customize peoples guns

    • @GoldPlatingServices
      @GoldPlatingServices  3 роки тому

      You can learn to do it. That is the purpose of our videos and our customer service. We design these kits exactly for that. Robert (from the video) even will get on video training calls once you're set up but most people have no issues getting started right away just by following our instructions.

    does this process cause embrittlement or stress in steel that would require heat treating? or just plate and its good to go? is there any need/way to seal the gold plating to further protect it?

    • @GoldPlatingServices
      @GoldPlatingServices  3 роки тому

      It's good to go after plating! No hydrogen embrittlement treatment is necessary with this particular process.

    Can this process be done if gun parts start out as blued and we want a bright nickel or gold plated end result ?

    • @GoldPlatingServices
      @GoldPlatingServices  3 роки тому

      Yes, all bluing has to be removed via sandblasting and/or polishing. You want the piece to be as nice looking as possible before applying this finishing plate.
