!NEW! - Bright Acid Tin Plating Process

A plating system ideal for Model Tin-ware Trains, Antique Tin-ware, Cooking Utensils, Electronics, Buss Bars, Tools and much more.  Tin is a very commonly used metal for the protection of steel. It is used extensively in the food trade because of its non-toxic qualities. Tin is a bright, shiny material, and has excellent soldering capabilities, making it ideal for all electrical connection applications.

Caswell’s Tin Plating kit will plate directly over, copper, steel, brass, bronze. Other ‘difficult’ metals such as pot metal will require a coat of FLASH COPPER first.  Plates at 21c to 35c.

Average thickness is typically 0.0002-3” (0.10” in 10 mins).  

Set-up involves mixing 2.6 litres of battery acid into 5.4 litres of distilled water, then adding one unit of Tin Concentrate/ Activator.   The Caswell Tin Plating System is a stable bath, which deposits a levelled, brilliant plate with excellent soldering capabilities. It has a wide operating range in regard to concentration and operates well with low tin concentration.
