You can use this plating solution for both brush and tank plating. Gold Strike Xtra Brush and Tank plates on to difficult-to plate metals such as chrome, surgical steel and dental alloys and achieves good adhesion with the brush plating method.

This gold plating solution plates straight onto chrome. You don’t need to strip your layer of chrome first, so gold plating on chrome becomes much quicker and straightforward.

The Gold Strike Xtra Brush and Tank is nickel-free so it’s safe for plating items that will come into contact with skin.

You can use this plating solution as an adhesive undercoat when plating onto difficult-to-plate metals such as surgical steel and tungsten or as a decorative gold layer.

Gold concentration: 4 grams per litre

HS Code: 3824 99 70

The ‘Xtra’ means there’s 2 grams more gold in this solution compared to our Gold Strike. This results in a faster plating rate and it has more than twice the capacity of Gold Strike Brush and Tank Plating Solution. It is particularly useful for plating super adherent key layers when used with the brush plating method.

Pictured here is the gold strike xtra being used to tank plate some surgical steel nose rings.

Our Gold Strike Xtra plates layers of gold straight on to difficult to plate stainless steel alloys and chrome without stripping. It is particularly useful for brush plating super adherent key layers. Please use a Carbon Electrode, which you can buy by clicking on the link in the ‘Related Products’ section below this panel.

 

Other difficult to plate metals such as tungsten can also be plated with our Gold Strike Xtra.
