Man, you have that car STRIPPED DOWN!!! Like step one on the assembly line. 🤣 Nice categorization system and the plating turned out great. And best of all, you can say the parts are all original. 👍🏼

When blasting small parts, a magnetic tray makes it easier. No need to hold the parts and making holes in the gloves. 😁

Awesome work! I’m assuming of you skip the yellow passivate the parts would be complete minus the gold color? Love your videos!
@RestorationApprentice
@RestorationApprentice 2 года назад
Thank you! There is a second passivate in the kit. A blue one, that gives a silver finish. But yeah, if you skip passivate it's plated in classic zinc color. I'm not sure if passivates are just for looks or maybe they add a bit of durability too.

Great job, final look is great. Mind sharing the mix for electrolite bath ? Also, the plates on the Cathode are solid zinc or just normal galvanized steel ? And do you know if this process could be used for plating with copper or brass ? Best Regards !

I'm using a very similar kit, thanks for sharing your process. Did you have trouble getting a good even passivation with a deep colour? Mine is coming out a bit pale and blotchy. I notice you have a nitric acid dip before passivation that is not in my kit, did you add that yourself? Does it make a difference to the passivation result? (I'm using the 'dry acid' as a dip between plating and passivation but it's not perfect.) Great work on the car, I shall watch the whole series.
@RestorationApprentice
@RestorationApprentice 2 года назад
Thank you for watching! Nitric acid came with the kit so I use it, not sure how it improves the results. Most of the time, my plating comes out looking great, but sometimes I need to redo it as I'm not happy with the results. I think it comes down to the size of the plating items and playing with the resistor(as I use regular car battery). I think my results would improve with adjustable 12v source, so I plan to get one. Maybe it all depends from kit to kit too.

Only one I could get in my country, I'm not sure how to translate it. It's called granos grit... Something to do with copper. I don't think you can go wrong any medium really.

You still need to remove existing zinc coating assuming you want to get gold zinc look. Either mechanically with a bench grinder or with some chemicals and still shine them up on a bench grinder for better results.

Hi i got the same kit for zic with all materials. But when i try yellow pasivate wont stay on the bolts. I try all, put on furnace after pasivate, let dry naturaly for 72h, hot air gun before pasivate, put first transparent pasivate and then yellow, but never stays on the bolts, when u touch the bolt the pasivate come out. Any advice? Thanks for your videos.

Sorry for the super late reply. I got that same problem on my last batch... not sure why. It might be worth emailing classicpalting and asking them.
@jtekdryice
@jtekdryice Год назад
It's because the electrolyte bath leaves a greasy layer on the workpiece after plating. The nitric acid dip mixed at 0.5% will solve this problem. Dip for 20 seconds. Rinse before and after in distilled water, then do your passivate dip. Then you must get all water droplets off with compressed air or they will stain the passivate layer
