extra durability, and to prevent corrosion of the plated finish, the
lures can be sprayed with the included VHT Clear Lacquer.
The copper, nickel and Copy Chrome™ plating systems all require a DC power source to operate, and plate at the rate of 0.07 amps per square inch of part surface area. The average fishing lure is approx 2 sq in, meaning that our 3 amp plating rectifier will plate about 20 lures at a time. Each kit contains 2 anodes of copper and nickel/Copy Chrome™. These anodes will plate approx 40-60 sq ft of material before they need to be replenished. The plating solutions are virtually permanent. This means that your initial kit purchase will plate approx 3000 fishing lures before you need to purchase anything else. We are offering two sizes of kits, a 5.5 litre Kit and a 11 litre Kit. The 5.5 litre kit will be able to fit approx 20 lures on the tank bar at a time, and has a 9" dia x 9" deep tank. The 11 litre kit will fit about 30 lures, and has a 12" diameter x 12" deep tank. With some imagineering, a plating rack could be devised to fit considerably more lures. We are offering two versions of the kit, to avoid duplication, a Nickel Kit, and a Copy Chrome™ Kit. Both kits contain the degreaser, Pickle #4 and Copper Plating systems. Custom kits are also available on request.
