Product information "Silver Conductive Ink"

 

Silver conductive lacquer (12 grams or 50 grams contains 50% pure silver powder)

ready conductive lacquer for application - also suitable for airbrush 

 

For the coating of non-conductive materials such as wood, glass, plastic, this conductive silver lacquer can be used by Betzmann electroplating can be a helpful support. 

It should be noted that you must prepare the substrate perfectly so that the paint adheres there optimally. After drying, it will provide a conductive surface and can be coated. Children's shoes, flowers, etc. can thus be coated. 

You can apply it with a brush or also with an airbrush gun.

The smoother and shinier the paint layer, the higher the degree of gloss of the coating - please use very long and thick acid or copperplate with PP-copper. This brings the gloss!
