How it Works (Simple Explanation) Gold is deposited onto metal surfaces through direct current: Polish: Prepare a smooth, high-gloss surface. Clean: Thoroughly degrease (e.g., with an electrocleaner). Activate: Chemically activate the surface (e.g., with an activator). Gold Plating: Apply DC (approx. 4 V) with a platinum or graphite anode to deposit gold. Result: a hard, uniform gold layer with excellent gloss and high durability. Advantages High gold content (12 g/L) for faster deposition and thicker layers Very hard and uniform layers, even for prolonged plating Excellent coverage and adhesion on metals like stainless steel, copper, silver, brass, nickel, iron, and steel Suitable for tank, brush, and tampon plating Versatile for decorative and technical plating in hobby, industrial, or research applications Economical for larger surfaces or frequent use Technical Parameters PropertyValue / RangeElectrolyte typeGold plating solution (High Speed Gold)Gold contentapprox. 12 g/LOperating temperature14–25 °CVoltage range3.0–8.0 V (starting at ~4 V)Recommended anodePlatinum or graphiteGold content in depositapprox. 99.9 % (rest carbon)Deposition rateapprox. 0.7 µm/min at 3.5 V (Platinum anode)Layer hardnessapprox. 220–230 HVDeposit densityapprox. 19.0 g/cm³Voltage stressmediumStorageprotect from direct sunlightShelf life1–2 yearsHazard classHarmful / Irritant Note: Values are typical operational data; slight variations may occur depending on application.

The metal care product is used for cleaning and polishing surfaces.    With the metal care almost all types of surfaces (except textiles) can be cleaned, treated and sealed with little effort and completely without water! Metal Care from Betzmann Galvanik does not contain acids or alkalis. It is ph-neutral and slowly biodegradable. It is even machine applicable by means of an eccentric polishing machine.      Some examples of use:  Car, boat, motorcycle, bicycle, kitchen, bathroom, ceramics, glass, leather, imitation leather, amarture board, plastic, camper, stainless steel, chrome, glass panes, TV, monitors, glasses, helmets, tiles, mirrors, shoe sole sides,  cell phone displays, store counters, high-gloss fronts, foiling (matt/glossy), advertising and company signs, solar systems, solariums, whirlpools, pools, rims, ovens, acrylic glass, ceramic hobs, CNC machines, chrome fixtures in the bathroom and much more.      Application:  Shake bottle briefly before use. Apply the metal care to the object to be treated and distribute/massage.  Then polish or wipe the lotion away with a clean microfiber cloth.  It can be applied by hand or by machine. For machine application, the care product can be used like a normal polish. For this purpose, apply the agent to the machine polishing attachment and process with gentle pressure. Then polish or wipe off the lotion with a clean microfiber cloth. or wipe clean. Due to its additional cleaning function, the metal care replaces a large number of polishes for automotive reconditioners. Smooth surfaces appear  after the application in their original shine and are sealed (Lotus effect). Dull lacquers are beautifully matt again after application and dirt and grease residues are grease residues are removed. Glass panes become streak-free clean after application and less susceptible to soiling (sealed).  With each new or further application, the protective film/sealing is further built up and the pores in the surface are closed. The product does not contain chalk or wax ingredients like common polishes. Thus also plastics can be polished effortlessly and appear again in the old shine (no white stripes or residues on plastic). The sealing usually lasts between 2-8 weeks (depending on the area of application and stress on the polished object). object).    Notice:  The product should not necessarily be used in the blazing sun, otherwise it may happen that you have to work harder to polish up the product One should also not use the metal care on smooth floors, as this surface then becomes even smoother and possible slipping danger exists.
