This ready mixed Rhodium Plating solution is the best I've used. As always, make sure your article is clean. The recommended plating cycle is 2 minutes, don't deviate from this as it works. What you do need to do is tap the article to release bubbles as it's plating. If you don't, the finish is a bit blotchy to say the least. I've had to plate over yellow before and doubling the cycle with re-activation of the surface in between is your best route.The finish you get is bright white as it says. It compares to an almost silver like brightness. Nothing I've done so far has burnt left dark bits or gone generally dark.Very pleased with this. I just have to get my pen plating attachment to try it that way.
