Akira 0 Posted June 11, 2011 Mhm.....since there is no official "Welcome Tissotman's Gold Plating Shop" I'd say you are not offering anything. You aren't a TD on this board. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sconehead 5 Posted June 11, 2011 ...correct, he's not offically endorsed at the moment. We've allowed Tissotman to make members aware that this is what he does for a living, if some of you wish to take advantage of this and the feedback is good, this status will be reviewed. Much the same as Ska and BL started out really... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tissotman 0 Posted June 11, 2011 Interesting, looking forward to see some gold plated watches from other member I am not so much into gold, tbh.... Its not so much about full plating watches , its more touching up worn gold watches and straps etc , where the plating has worn off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Akira 0 Posted June 12, 2011 Can you gold plate my Audi RS8? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeNnY 29 Posted June 12, 2011 Brush plating right? Thank you Ska for this info ! I already checked youtube, it is great and you are able to do it in home environment I didn't really know that this is how the stuff is done. You can also chrome with this type of technique, great thing to revitalize some old watches, that were chrome plated ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trailboss99 997 Posted June 12, 2011 Yeah sort of Kenny, those DIY home kits (mostly from caswells) are not much chop TBH, you need the sort of gear that tissotman has to do any decent job. Col. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tissotman 0 Posted June 12, 2011 Can you gold plate my Audi RS8? it is possible, and ive seen it done on cars but its not something i would attempt to big a job even for me. even though you are probably joking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pentax 0 Posted June 12, 2011 hey tissot, how many microns can you achieve? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ska 11 Posted June 12, 2011 +1 to col. The kits you can buy online are shite. From the looks of some of those photos you've got a very decent rectifier there so I'd imagine the results are very good. Best of luck. Can you get Rose Gold Solution? As I expect that would greatly increase people's interest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tissotman 0 Posted June 12, 2011 hey tissot, how many microns can you achieve? i normally plate about 5 microns but can plate more depending on what the customer wants. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ska 11 Posted June 12, 2011 you'll get a lot of enquiries about rose gold here. Its almost more popular than yellow gold when it comes to watches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
