Conductive Graphite Paint - Electroplating and Electroforming Ink 30ml

I honestly think people should look into the process more before saying that this product doesn’t do the job right! I have been using it since I have started electroforming and it’s my go-to paint! This is one of the pieces of jewelry I have electroformed onto this graphite paint which dries fast and even ! Learn the difference between plating and electroforming and make sure you’re using the proper bath! If you’re using a PLATING solution and not an electroforming solution the results are going to be crumbly but that’s not because of the paint, that’s because you should plate metal onto metal if you want good results! Do your process right and you will not have any problems whatsoever! I use a gold-leaf adhesive before applying the paint so it can adhere properly to the surface I need to electroform. Again, the paint is brilliant but follow the proper steps in preparing your piece ! If you want to skip using the adhesive then mix your own graphite powder with some mod podge and there you have it! But please make sure you don’t blame a perfectly good product if you don’t use it properly :) 5 stars from me !

Best with 2 coats. Works well (for an amateur like me) to shield the pickups cavities and control cavities of an electric guitar. I screw in a small wood screw into the side of the pickup cavity while the paint is still wet. This screw has a wire looped around it, that is grounded to the volume pot cover (or jack socket), then I paint over the screw and end of the wire where it is wrapped/soldered onto the screw. Any other metal parts needing grounded (eg. Metal bridge, metal tailpiece ? You are best grounding those too otherwise tour efforts won’t be as good as you hoped

Tried using this to coat the buttons of a worn remote control, worked for 3 days. Paint doesn't stick to flexible rubber buttons. We live and learn, good product just not right for my particular job.

good

im sure it will work well for electroplating plastics

absolute rubbish. Painted onto surface, left for more than 12 hours. Dipped into nickel plate solution and it just fell off. This is not suitable for electroplating as indicated on bottle. Complete and utter waste of my money. If you want to buy this for electroplating i would strongly recommend you dont buy this. It is rubbish

tried this for copper plating. This is not suitable for electroplating as indicated

Works great. I had accidentally removed some of the conductive coating inside my SNES controller. I applied this and it works great.
