The tank plating equipment deluxe fullfills all the requirements for a modern plating device. Its high flexibility and variability allows to use a high numer of different electrolytes, anodes, power sources and receptacles. Besides, its innovative design avoids any tangling of the cables and allows a free positioning of the anodes and workpieces. The anodes as well as the cathodic workpiece can be moved freely into every direction. It is also easily possible to integrate blender systems, heating possibilities and filtre systems into the equpiment - always according to your needs. Completed with a high amount of useful accessories, the equipment allows you to store the electrolyte after the treatment for later use. This equipment can be used with all of the tank plating electrolytes and package sizes of our product range without any problems. The Tifoo Tank plating equipment deluxe - possibly the most costumer-friendly on the market. Purchase your easy and at the same time professional start in the exciting world of (hobby) electroplating of small objects. You can chose between a 3 A or 10 A power supply. The stronger power supply is especially needed for objects with bigger surfaces and when using electrolytes that need a high current density, like e.g. the copper electrolyte. (5 A pro dm²). The Tifoo zinc electrolyte for example needs a current density of about 2 A / dm² for immersion plating. That means that with a 3 A power supply, you can e.g. galvanize a surface of 1.5 dm² = 100 cm², i.e. for example a metal sheet of 15 x 10 cm. For all bigger parts, it is advisable to work with a 10 A power supply. The electrolytes vary here: for a gold electrolyte bath, 0.3 A pro dm² are enough, whereas chrome needs a current density of 15 A per dm². An overview of each needed current density can be found either in the instruction manuals of the electrolyte in question, or in Tifoo Current density table. For a detailed description of how to use the products, please read the corresponding instruction manual.

Description of the article: Tifoo Copper conductive paint (400 ml) – the product features at a glance: 400 ml of conductive copper paint for electroplating for airbrush and brush makes non-conductive material conductive plating plants and natural objects easy and filigree application This galvanic conductive paint on copper base from Tifoo allows you to plate works of art and gifts made of glass, pottery, plastic and a lot of other material with a bright layer of metal in a short time. Just apply a thin layer of the conductive paint with a brush on the cleaned surface. The copper conductive paste dries until rub-proff in 10 to 15 minutes and therefore allows a quick treatment of the workpieces. The complete drying for perfect resistance on stressed surfaces takes about 12 to 36 hours at room temperature. The varnish can be diluted with butyl acetate. In the next step, the object is connected to a wire and copper-plated in the acidic copper electrolyte from Tifoo. A resistant copper layer will then be deposited. The last step can be used for nickel-plating, silver-plating or even gilding! Thanks to its low price and the high electrical and thermical conductiveness, the conductive copper varnish is the perfect alternative to the conductive silver varnish. Please keep in mind that the first step has to consist in copper-plating in the acidic copper electrolyte because the conductive varnish won't be activated before. After copper-plating, the metal layer will be wear-resistant. Suitable material: synthetic material, glass, pottery, plants, wood and a lot of other non-conductive material Drying time: 5-15 minutes (rub-proof), 1-3 days (complete for maximal requirements) 20 mL are enough for a surface of up to one square metre - very efficient!Shipping notes: As this item is classified as "hazardous" by REACH / GHS, international shipment is subject to special regulations of the carrier.

Description of the article: Tifoo Palladium plating solution – the product features at a glance: 1 g of palladium / litre Ideal for tank or pen plating Serves as a barrier layer before gilding to avoid alloyings Easy in use and free from cyanide Tifoo Palladium electrolyte - the non-allergenic alternative to nickel electrolyte. Until today, palladium-plating is a quite rarely used electroplating method. In its function as substitution for galvanic nickel-plating, it can offer some advantages (despite the higher price). So, what are its advantages? Normally, a nickel electrolyte is used to create a barrier layer made of nickel between copper and gold to prevent the two metals from mixing together. The advantages are the following: Palladium is more noble than nickel, that means that there is no corrosion on the surface and the palladium doesn't need to be gilded nor activated like nickel. The deposition speed and the effectiveness are excellent, i.e. there is no unwanted gas formation. This electrolyte deposits silver white, very bright palladium and can be used as a bright "finish". When gilding on it with Tifoo Gold electrolyte and pen plating, you will achieve a perfect result. Unlike the nickel electrolyte, palladium isn't cancerogenic and because of that authorised for private costumers! A very good combination for gilding almost any metal is: copper (acidic), palladium and finally gold.Shipping notes: As this item is classified as "hazardous" by REACH / GHS, international shipment is subject to special regulations of the carrier.
