Thank you so much for sharing!! I'm just starting out on this awesome art form. It's a little intimidating to get start. "Do I buy all of my supplies ready more, or could I make some of them?" has been my biggest hurdle to starting.
Hola! Soy española y me gustaría comprar la receta de la pintura conductiva super rápida. Antes de comprarla me gustaría saber si los materiales los voy a poder conseguir fácilmente en mi país o alguno de ellos tiene que ser de alguna marca específica que tenga que comprar en tiendas online. Gracias!
Thank you so much for this recipe!! I’m going to be investing in your courses soon😁 Side note, I’m going to send you some lotion for your poor dry hands 😂 man hands for sure
I made a 1:1 graphite powder and India ink mixture, but it won't plate. I tested my setup on a silverware and that took copper immediately. Not sure what I'm doing wrong
Jason, With the third formula, how do you deal with attaching the jump rings? Would it go like this?: 1. Paint it 2. Do a thin layer of copper 3. Put the jump ring on it using the super glue and baking soda method 4. Paint over the baking soda with one other other formulas 5. Do the final copper layers?
I was about to ask exactly the very same question. So, to use it with an airbrush, I was wondering if it wouldn't be better to use graphen io graphite. It is supposed to be more conductive than graphite and is thinner.
The description of the ink says 'Easily applied by pen, brush, steel brush or airbrush, Speedball’s India Ink is free-flowing, non-clogging and waterproof.' The big question is if it continues being free-flowing after having been added with graphite.
Copper readily forms an oxide layer, making it less conductive. If you were to try it first remove the oxide layer by washing the copper powder in hydrochloric acid (muratic acid in the hardware store), then put it on. You could also coat it like done in the video, then electroplate it with copper.
