I was wondering if anyone has purchased a home plating kit offered by the auto restoration industry (Eastwood). I purchased one and it appears to be decent although I am not sure how long the plating

Love my EW Zinc plating kit, so far things have help quite well, bolts out in the weather for 6 years now still look good, some are showing signs of rust where the wrench might have taken some platin

Isn't it just a low voltage DC power supply? Radio Shack sells various benchtop supplies. Or you could even rig up s spare PC power supply. -Wayne _______________________________________________ Supp

OK - I've been waiting for this one. Is 24 volts too much ? I have a heavy-duty lift-truck-type battery charger that I'd love to put to this use. There are no other taps available on the transformer

There are several voltage regulator chips on the market that could be used to reduce the voltage from 24 to 12 or almost any other voltage you need. The biggest question is how much current does plat

Could be done, but you'll need to add to it; including filter capacitors and some way to control the voltage. Yeah, but unless you are planning on doing fairly large objects, it's probably going to

Things like filtering and electronic regulation aren't necessary for a plating setup. You can probably control the current by changing the size of the anode (or is it a cathode?), and the distance fr

Problem with all these great solutions, is you can talk about the intricacies of bearing clearances or piston to cylinder clearances or valve timing to the nth degree to me, but talk to me about regu

Another thing you can do is stick a light bulb in the circuit. This kit from the UK uses a car battery and light bulb. (not provided, of course) http://www.bullnet.co.uk/shops/test/zinc.htm _________

Great idea! Naturally you can change the bulb wattage to adjust the current. Just don't bother trying to use a compact fluorescent bulb to save energy! Doug __________________________________________

I agree about the electronic regulation. But since current density plays a part in the quality of the plating (particularly chrome plating), it's important to get the current density reasonably cons
