[@dogphlap6749]

This is amazing. I saw from the thumbnail that this technique will turn a right hand wood screw in a left hand one. Neat trick.

I have been using the primitive vinegar approach. Time for a new set up, awesome.

Nice results, can you share where you purchased the ingredients for the solutions? Caswell sells a kit but it's too expensive. Thanks.

Nice work! What current/voltage are you using for the plating? And what did you use for the alkaline solution?
