Gold Plating Brass
What does it take to gold plate brass? I recently took a tour of a metal plating facility and documented the steps to gold plate the brass dice that I made. I had no idea cyanide was required for many steps in this process?! Fascinating to watch!

Awesome walk through, thank you!
Fascinating indeed! Thank you!
amazing, so detailed procedures!
Very cool! The dice look beautiful!
Fascinating!
Very cool but I can't afford this setup. I'm just trying to make these brass screws shinier. I already clean, and polished them. Is there a lacquer or finish you'd recommend to make brass shinier and similar to gold plated.
Merci beaucoup
Did they have to wear masks around the cyanide containing baths? Or was wearing gloves + a well ventilated facility enough?
Love your videos! How much would something like that cost?

I'd imagine for low batch orders like his (1) it wouldn't be really cheap since most shops hate doing prototype work. That being said I'd say a couple hundred bucks
Hi, can you share the name of the place in LA where they conducted the gold plating? Thanks!

Is there a difference in color between a gold plated brass and gold plated bronze? Or would they look the same since it’s gold plated?

hello @mikam.7312 , there will be no difference in color between a gold plated brass and gold plated bronze as they are being treated with base and sandwich layer of copper and nickel. For more info, You can contact us. Thank you
Why is brass plated with copper then nickel before the gold plating? What is the rational for this sequence?
