X‑Gold Strong / Goldstrike 6 g/L Electrolyte (BMG‑086)
High‑Adhesion Gold Strike Plating Solution for Challenging Surfaces
Short Description
The X‑Gold Strong / Goldstrike 6 g/L Electrolyte (BMG‑086) is a specialized gold plating solution designed to deposit thin, highly adhesive gold layers with a gold content of approximately 6 g per liter.
It is formulated to provide excellent adhesion even on difficult‑to‑plate substrates, making it an ideal base layer for subsequent gold or other precious metal coatings.
Applications
This gold strike electrolyte is suited for:
-
Adhesion gold layers on challenging substrates such as chrome, stainless steel, and dental alloys
-
Base strike layers before thicker gold or decorative coatings
-
Decorative accents and functional surfaces
-
Contact and conductor finishes requiring strong adhesion
-
Applications demanding uniform adhesion and surface coverage
How It Works (Simple Explanation)
Gold plating uses an electrical current to reduce gold ions from the electrolyte onto the workpiece. This specific formulation promotes strong adhesion, even on materials that are typically difficult to plate:
-
Preparation: Clean and degrease the surface thoroughly
-
Plating: Connect the workpiece as the cathode and apply voltage
-
Deposition: A thin, strongly adherent gold layer forms
-
Further treatment: This base can support thicker or decorative coatings

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.
