Great job on that! I had a quick question for you or anyone else who has a background in plating: I understand 24k gold (being a soft metal) plating runs off of guns after a while especially if constantly used. Can this be prevented in any way? Would a lower karat of gold possibly help?

The main reason is because we've found that nickel plating onto nickel (after the nickel strike) has a high likelihood of having issues. Ultimately, although this method did work, it is NOT at all how we would recommend plating a slide. It's a miracle it turned out as good as it did.
when you are rinsing after each stage, is distilled water absolutely necessary or would tap water work? I've noticed some cloudiness after rinsing after the nickel strike stage.
Thank you! Appreciate you watching. We do not do antiquing but there is a lot of information about it on the web. Some of our customers do mix antiquing and plating to achieve certain looks.
This solution can achieve both decorative and 'tool' thickness. Our 24K Gold solution can be plated very thick. It depends on how long you plate your piece. The longer you plate it, the thicker the gold will be.
I use your products for gold plating and love the results but Is it normal if the gold plating rubs off when I use a compound to polish after the plating is done? If it's not suppose to rub off what am I doing wrong? By the way I'm using mothers compound that you sell on your site. Thank you
I dont think hour suppose to use mothers cause that's a cleaner/ polisher that somewhat cuts down on layers of the metal. They sell special sprays to clean gold plated items. Not expensive at all. I Just cant remember the name of the particular one I had.
How much to do a 1911 carbon steel, slide, frame, grip safety, and mainspring housing in gold. Just want a comparison vs just getting the gold tone cerakote. I cannot afford to buy a gold plate kit myself.
If you could, please send an e-mail to info@goldplating.com and we can steer you in the right direction. Typically, doing an entire gun in gold is quite expensive, as the bluing needs to be removed, the entire gun polished and then multiple steps to plate it. A rough estimate would be $500-$1000.
Question: if I do this at home, is it important to wear any other gear like a surgeon mask; and how important is it to have a well ventilated room to do it in?? I'm from Germany and it's pretty cold outside, so I don't really wanna work with the windows open + wearing a winter jacket.
We recommend gloves and safety glasses. Some of our solutions emit fumes and a mask would help. You could also have a fan blowing which would help with the air circulation. The chemicals that you are using have Safety Data Sheets on our website which contain more safety information. The SDS's are under the resources tab. www.goldplating.com/
Is this the same as titanium nitride coating???? Is it real gold??and before I go buying one from u guys can you please explain to me why you gold plated it just to nickel plate it just gold plate it again when it was already nickel plated🤯 like I'm lost right there lol plz.

I gold plate lots of rims car parts Guns etc. located in San Antonio text me if you. need anything done send me pics ill give you a price. and can send you pics of my work
I would suggest not brush plating because it is really difficult to make it look good. If you do bath plating it would be a lot easier and look amazing. You could look into our ProLab set ups.
I've used the universal plater many time on firearms and never had an issue. If it's done right you get a beautiful piece. An how long it last well that just depends on the use it gets. It will last as long as you take care of it.
I have a question.on my motorcycle I have steel cages for dropping protection.I was wondering if I can plate the gold?I also have a rear cage but it’s aluminum.can I plate that too?
Aluminum can be plated but it's a more difficult process that not a lot of people do. It has to be dipped in a zincate bath before any metal is plated on. Any other part can be plated on a motorcycle. Steel or stainless. I did some mirrors and trim for a custom Harley.
When it was faded halfway gold and half silver was pretty sweet
It's really fun to see it change
@@GoldPlatingServices how much do you charge to plate a slide?
That would be cool fade it out
@@GoldPlatingServices if it was black or some other color instead of the polish finish it had before would it come out different?
Do a silver and gold ar15 like this would be awesome
For aesthetics it works. Otherwise you need to dip in nickel to protect the internals of the slide from corrosion.
This guy is very good. Artistry at it's best.
Would you like to practice so more on one of my AK’s?

No it's not possible. You can add a thicker layer of gold plating that's all.
You can probably dip. But that's way more expensive

He's selling the equipment. I don't think they want the responsibility because it will probably look like Poo-Poo-Caca.
How much does this cost man I wanna get my 1911 done it seems simple
So the only reason you did the first gold plate step then nickle plate then gold again is to make it thicker. And less chance of corrosion

What do you think gun slides are made of???
@@I_AM_ISAACP did you buy this kit and try it out? Theres a ton of different metals. That's why I asked
Nahh. Just sayin that gunslides are steel. Aka metal.
Instead of trying to do 24k plating just do titanium nitride
@@I_AM_ISAACP I will look into that. Thank you sir
So that’s just a polished metal slide? No chrome no other plating correct?
I make a lot of sculptures all the time from different materials and don't know how to cover them all in real gold
when you are rinsing after each stage, is distilled water absolutely necessary or would tap water work? I've noticed some cloudiness after rinsing after the nickel strike stage.
Distilled water is clean and has no minerals in it. Tap water it is not 100% clean so distilled water is recommended.
How much for all the equipment in total? And where can I buy it? Please respond I would really love to have the ability to do this at home.

Thank you! Appreciate you watching.
We do not do antiquing but there is a lot of information about it on the web. Some of our customers do mix antiquing and plating to achieve certain looks.
Which set do you recommend for gun gold plating?
Does this method work on black guns too ?
Can this achieve a practical, 'tool' quality finish like for a watch case, or is it purely decorative? Do you know the average thickness in microns?
This solution can achieve both decorative and 'tool' thickness. Our 24K Gold solution can be plated very thick. It depends on how long you plate your piece. The longer you plate it, the thicker the gold will be.
Average plating thickness is 0.0025 microns to 0.004 microns
Would this be better then cerakote for all the benefits that cerakote has?
It's great and nicely done. Can I get this material Interested in painting firearms?
How do you hire these guys for a gold plating job..any info appreciated.
How would copper plating hold up? I know gold doesn't last if the weapon is used much.
Copper would be have similar results as the gold.

Yes you can gold plate onto nickel very easily: Electroclean @ 7v for a few minutes, Activate @7v quickly, Gold plate to desired thickness
So is nickel strike not need to put nickel on gold?

It depends on the nail polish. I know that people have use it before and it has worked. I would test it on a scrap piece to see if it works for you.
