Easy [DIY] brass plating metal - the heat and brass brush method

[@The_RC_Guru]

Oh I have to try this too now

[@ryborg123456]

Works very well!

Thanks. I am also preparing a copper plating experiment as well, and I do believe that will be my next video. Copper plating and brass plating are the two processes that can be attempted with ease. The "Holy Grail" is of course Chrome Plating, but because of the chemicals involved it is out of reach for the most people.

@@isographer I've done copper plating electrochemically and it was pretty simple. Took some experimenting to figure out that the current needs to change as the thickness changes. Worth trying.

How does this technique hold up against the elements? I have a stainless steel boiler inside my sauna I am tempted to try this plating on...:)

Hy, i don't think it will hold well against the weather. All the artworks i have plated this way in the past were protected by applying adittional layers of clearcoat.

Thanks! If I do it I will update how it worked out, might add a coat just in case@@isographer
