Galvano Activator BMG-061.2 Surface activator and pickling solution for electroplating applications Short Description The Galvano Activator BMG-061.2 is a specially formulated chemical solution used for activating metal surfaces prior to electroplating. It removes thin oxide and passive layers that prevent proper adhesion of electroplated coatings and restores a chemically active metal surface. The activator is an essential preparation step for achieving uniform, adherent and high-quality electroplated layers, such as nickel, gold, silver or chromium coatings. What is the activator used for? The activator is used to: remove thin oxide and passive layers from metal surfaces activate metals after degreasing and before electroplating improve adhesion and durability of subsequent coatings prepare workpieces for professional electroplating processes It is commonly applied to: steel and passive nickel surfaces copper, brass and copper alloys preparation before nickel plating, silver plating, gold plating or chromium plating How does the activator work? (simple explanation) Even after thorough cleaning and degreasing, metal surfaces often remain covered by microscopic oxide layers that are invisible to the eye but block electroplating. The activator works by: Dissolving and removing thin oxide and passive layers Chemically activating the metal surface Allowing the next electroplated layer to adhere evenly and securely This results in better coating quality, improved adhesion and longer service life of the plated surface. Application Instructions (practical guidance) Preparation Before using the activator, the workpiece should be polished if required and thoroughly degreased, e.g. with a suitable electrocleaner. Application Method 1 – Without electrical current (immersion) Immerse the workpiece in the activator for 30–60 seconds Rinse briefly with clean water Proceed with electroplating within 10–30 minutes to prevent re-oxidation Application Method 2 – With electrical assistance (brush / pen activation) Use a stainless steel or graphite electrode Apply approx. 2.7 V DC Treat the surface with gentle circular movements for about 30 seconds Tip: Begin electroplating as soon as possible after activation, as metal surfaces oxidize quickly when exposed to air. Advantages of Galvano Activator BMG-061.2 Effectively removes invisible oxide and passive layers Ensures optimal surface activation before electroplating Improves adhesion and uniformity of plated coatings Suitable for various metals and alloys Can be used with or without electrical current Proven product for hobby, workshop and professional use Safety Information The activator is a chemical solution and must be handled with appropriate care: Wear chemical-resistant gloves, safety goggles and protective clothing Avoid contact with skin and eyes In case of contact, rinse immediately with plenty of water Use only in well-ventilated areas Keep out of reach of children Warning: May cause serious eye irritation. Proper protective equipment is mandatory. Scope of Delivery Galvano Activator BMG-061.2 Quantity according to selection Conclusion The Galvano Activator BMG-061.2 is an essential preparation product for professional electroplating. By removing oxide layers and activating metal surfaces, it ensures reliable adhesion, uniform coatings and consistently high-quality electroplated results — for both beginners and professionals.

Gold Flash Electrolyte (BMG‑084.5) Ultra‑Thin Gold Plating Solution for Base and Decorative Layers Short Description The Gold Flash Electrolyte (BMG‑084.5) is a specialized electroplating solution designed to deposit a very thin, high‑purity gold layer (“flash plating”). This ultrathin gold layer serves as an ideal base coat or decorative coating on metallic surfaces. real-gold.de Applications This gold flash electrolyte is suitable for: Very thin gold coatings („flash“ plating) Adhesion base for subsequent plating layers Decorative accent coatings on jewelry and metal parts Electrically conductive surfaces and contacts Foundation for further electroplating processes It provides excellent adhesion and a bright metallic appearance with minimal material usage. real-gold.de How Flash Gold Plating Works (Simple Explanation) Flash gold plating deposits a very thin gold layer using direct current: Clean and degrease the surface Activate for best conductivity Flash plating: Apply current – gold ions are reduced on the surface Optional finish: Rinse and dry or apply further coatings This process is ideal for achieving a thin but continuous gold surface layer with low material consumption. real-gold.de Benefits of Gold Flash Electrolyte Ultra‑thin, uniform gold coatings Excellent adhesion on metal surfaces Suitable for decorative and functional uses Compatible with tank, brush, and pad plating Ideal as base layer for additional plating steps real-gold.de Typical Parameters PropertyValue / RangeElectrolyte typeGold flash plating solutionGold contentapprox. 2 g/LLayer purity99.9 % goldVoltage4.0–6.0 VTemperature14–25 °CDeposition rateUltra‑thin “flash” layerAnodePlatinum or graphiteHardnessapprox. 180–190 HVDensityapprox. 19 g/cm³ real-gold.de Application Notes Prepare surface: Clean and degrease thoroughly.

Safety Information Wear protective gloves, goggles, and suitable clothing Avoid contact with skin and eyes Rinse thoroughly with water if contact occurs Work in a well‑ventilated area Do not ingest; keep out of reach of children Dispose of waste according to local regulations Conclusion The Gold Flash Electrolyte (BMG‑084.5) delivers ultra‑thin and highly adherent gold layers that are perfect for use as a base or decorative finish in electroplating. Its versatility and ease of use make it suitable for both hobby and professional electroplating applications where fine, bright gold coatings are desired. real-gold.de

Storage cup for the professional coating machine 50 Ampere Betzmann Galvanoshop:    This stable cup with screw cap fits perfectly into the holder of the professional electroplating unit. Capacity 300 ml. On request, you will receive the appropriate labelling for the material to be stored.   

Anode pad / tampon / anode sleeve / fuzzy sleeve / replacement fabric pad puffy from Betzmann Galvanik.    This puffy fabric pad / anode sleeve or also called tampon is absolutely recommended for all plating processes. Optimally suitable for all coatings and electrolytes.  The coating of larger areas is also quite fast with this pad.   The insertion hole is larger than the electrode and therefore it happens that the moist  anode pad slips off. Therefore, fix the pad on the electrode with a small rubber band.    

Sleeve - Swab - Anode fabric pad - Anode covers, thick, multi-layered - Replacement covers for pad electroplating from Betzmann Galvanik This thick, very robust anode fabric pad consists of several layers of fabric sewn together and is ideal for coating any surface. It does not wear out so quickly, especially on rough or coarse surfaces. At the lower end there are 2 insertion holes for the anode rod up to 6mm (for 8mm you can enlarge the holes with scissors or a knife. If this has already worked its way through the fabric at the top, you can continue to use the anode fabric pad by inserting it into the other insertion hole. Please soak the pad thoroughly before use, otherwise it will not conduct. Scope of delivery: 1 piece!
