This sulphate based concentrate has been specifically developed for decorative applications. It will produce bright, white lustrous deposits up to a maximum thickness of 2.5 µm.

Bath preparation
Typical requirements for 1 litre solution:
Demineralised or distilled water: 800 ml
Concentrated sulphuric acid: 20 ml (added cautiously to the water with stirring)
RJ100S: 20 ml

Metal preparation
All components must be thoroughly degreased using trichloroethylene or a similar solvent.
Immediately prior to plating the parts should be immersed in dilute sulphuric acid (5% v/v).
