PLATING PROCESS
Note: It is very very important that the piece to be
plated is properly cleaned and prepared. The following
cleaning process is strongly suggested before even
trying to plate with this product.
1. Polish the piece with rouge.
2. Put the piece into an ultrasonic cleaner on hot
temperature for 10 minutes.
3. Steam clean.
4. Electroclean then rinse in distilled water.
5. Mild acid etch with Activator T then rinse in distilled
water.
6. Shake off any excess water and pen plate.
AFTER CLEANING PROCESS:
7. Pour a small amount of the black rhodium pen solution
into a 30 ml beaker or into the cap of the bottle.
8. Use at room temperature.
9. Attach the clean piece of jewelry to the (-) lead. Plug the
pen into the positive outlet on the rectifier. If using a
disposable pen, follow instruction for pen plating with
disposable plater.
10.Dip the pens felt tip into the black rhodium pen solution.
11. Set the rectifier on 4-6 volts. There should be a grey
finish at 4 volts; at 5 volts red and purple colors blend with
the grey; and at 6 volts a darker grey, red, and purple finish
will be seen.
12. Rub the felt tip back and forth over the area to be plated.
It may be necessary to dip the felt tip into the solution 2-4
times prior to getting the results you are looking for.

off under hot tap water.
14. When you are finished plating, please return the solution
to the original bottle and close the cap. Rhodium can easily
become contaminated.
