Electroplating is an interesting and exciting science experiment for kids and adults alike. Invented in the early 1800's, electroplating covers science fundamentals such as chemistry, electricity and mathematics.
Our Silver Science Plating Kit can be used to plate gold over nickel, copper, brass, silver and tin.
In addition to our kit, you will need:
- Nitrile or Latex Gloves
- Eye Protection
- Beaker of Water for rinsing
- Cleaning agent (we recommend dish soap and hot water or Simple Green cleaner)
The kit can be used multiple times. The silver is depleted from the solution. Additions can be made to replenish.
The Silver Plating Solution does not contain any hazardous components and is quite safe to use. No fume control or face masks are required for use.
