Hello, I can't find an answer to increasing thickness of gold jewelry by plating. For example, if we make 20 microns gold plating to a gold ring 5 times. Would it be 100 microns thicker?

The gold elecroplating solution contains potassium dicyanoaurate dissolved in pure distilled water. Rubber gloves and caution must also be used, because the chemical in the solution contains deadly cyanide. Furthermore the anode does not have to be only stainless steel, because using pure gold instead will make a superior anode. In fact, if pure gold is used as the anode rather than stainless steel, then the gold electroplating solution will last much longer. This is because by using a pure gold anode, then the gold cations in the electroplating solution will not become depleted since they will be replenished from the gold anode.

This is because by using a pure gold anode, then the gold cations in the electroplating solution will not be depleted since they will be replenished from the gold anode which is known as a soluble anode. On the other hand, use of a stainless steel anode in a gold plating solution is known a non-soluble anode and the gold cations will be depleted.

Isn't using stainless steel as the anode even worse than what you're describing? By using stainless steel you will build up iron ions in the solution which will be much more thermodynamically favorable in plating? Iron has a much lower reduction potential than gold, and thermodynamics will favor iron plating. So yes, definitely use a gold plate as anode.

LOTS of misinformation here - the 'nickel activator' as he calls it - is actually NICKEL PLATING SOLUTION. you have to plate it with nickel BEFORE plating with gold ... because ... can you guess why?? yes!! that's RIGHT! because of the electrochemical series! remember high school?

@@bojackson3073 to my understanding you want a fresh nickel coating because even a fingerprint or any irregularity will mess up the gold plating. The cleaner the finish the better the plating. I’m looking to plate my vintage Gillette safety razors. I’m going to start with nickel because the solution for rhodium is so expensive like $1000 for 1g at this moment. A mistake can be costly. There’s more to just dipping and dunking. For example the voltage needs to be at 2.7v and it generally takes about 90sec to plate the whole razor. Any variation and the plating won’t take.

One of the rare youtube tutorial on how to do that and very well explained. Like in a lot of case, any 5V-1A charger would do the job ok ? Btw i'm thinking about doing that with 24k gold leaf but i don't know how well it would disolve and how to make the gold solution ? (I mean i bet with gold you can't do it with standard white vinegar but in hydrochloric acid and another one that i forgot the name of right ?)
