It would need to be painted is something metallic or conductive so the power can slow throw it and draw the copper to it.

So the LOS will not really hide the silver solder line, so you will want to copper plate it before using LOS.

@ClintLock1 4 года назад

I'm working on a copper countertop for a wine bar (wooden bar wrapped in copper sheet metal). To keep the bar waterproof, the seams between the copper sheets have to be soldered with lead-free solder (non-toxic). I'm wondering if we could disguise the solder color by leaving a pool of the copper sulfate/vinegar solution on the finished seams, with a strip of steel wool laid across the top?

I don't think so, you need electricity and a lot of time to get it to build up the copper so it would work like a setting. You have the right idea though.

@anthonywarnecke8260 5 лет назад

The steel wool probably works by creating a mini battery between the copper and the wool because they have a different reactivity and they are in a conductive solution (the blue copper salt)

Or you can keep a separate pickle pot, add your copper piece, and place stainless steel on the silver solder line. Works for me--without all of the setup.

My general work area is not only mine, my entire family has access to it and they can be pretty clumsy and have knocked over my pieces before, even my stuff i have on my shelves or tucked back where they _should_ be out of the way. add into that that them letting kids go out there and play and it's just a mess.

@theyakninja 5 лет назад

Did you try the steel wool method, but without the steel wool? My guess (I might be wrong) that it's not necessary. The copper ions from solution will switch places with more reactive metal (like iron) on the part surface. Well silver solder consists mostly of silver, which is less reactive than copper, but also of other metals like zinc, tin or lead, all of these are more reactive, so by my guess the piece of silver solder will turn red after simply being immersed in the copper salt solution. It will work better with the easy solder as it contains less silver. The electroplating just makes that process faster and makes it possible to plate even less reactive metals like silver, gold or platinum. But what's the purpose of the steel wool in this? Except for just wasting a bunch of copper solution. I don't have copper salt on my hands right now so I can't try, but if you did that that would be nice, I would really like to be proven wrong. Thank you for the video.

@effreyjeppstein4673 4 года назад

So if you do this with an off brand apple style cellphone charger (or other unknown charger), make sure you use a GFCI outlet, some of the cheaper brands have an unfortunate design flaw which may make one of the low voltage wires actually connected to the 120v AC hot wire of your electrical outlet (ungrounded conductor)... it's a nasty shock if you complete the circuit to ground with your body. To avoid this be sure to use an original apple charger 😉

Question: I didn't use silver solder, but I did try the steel wool method on other solder and it's not working. Copper plated the steel wool, but not the solder.

@GomeowCreations 2 года назад

It should work on what ever solder you used. Try pulling the steal wool apart a bit and wrapping it around the part that has so solder. You can also use the steal wool as a brush and apply the copper solution directly to the parts you need.

You're a few years too late on that. I don't use any music anymore because everyone complains 😅

Sorry but the word is pronounced SOLDer not sodder. It is also called a SOLDering iron so why do americans mispronounce the SOLDer but not the SOLDering iron?

@GomeowCreations 3 года назад

That's just how it's pronounced here but clearly you understood what I was saying. I also watch content from other countries and they pronounce things in a different way at times but I understand that is how it is and don't try an correct them to my pronunciation of the word. 😅👍

@@GomeowCreations but in every video i have watched whilst wanting to learn about SOLDERING hand made clasps for my crocheted and sewn projects is how i stumbled across this video today. I live in the UK i am english born and bred and was really confused as the words SOLDering Iron is pronounced correctly but the the word SOLDer was pronounced SODDer... Just an observation. Yes it is oddly pronounced and it threw me and irritated me to the point i thought as an english person i would try to help by pointing the mistake out. Didn't mean to offend. It was an observation. I know the english language can be complicated. P.s if i was speaking french and mis pronounced i would expect to be corrected by a french speaker to help me. :)

This might help www.circuitspecialists.com/blog/solder-not-sodder-the-story-behind-the-silent-or-not-so-silent-l/ Really I get this same comment all the time and it's honestly a waist of both of our time seeing that it changes nothing. I don't mean to be rude by that. 😁👍

I had know idea you had a video on cooper plating… Wow super easy… both ways super easy.. looks great I think like the steel wool the best… But using my pickle after I have contaminated it that is also another great idea so thank you for sharing this with us Randy… Michelle@aumi.jewels
