Reply to "Nickel Electroplating"

Thank you for the responses.  Also, how long should I leave the part submerged?  They do say it's a good idea to routinely rotate the part so that it's receives even plating on all sides

You should only have to agitate it once. The idea is to move the nickel towards the workpiece. As the plating begins, the area around the workpiece becomes less saturated with Nickel. Probably not as bad as doing large parts like car parts where those large tanks have a built in agitator …..Like Pete said and the song goes..” tiny bubbles” ….maybe after 20 seconds or so just swish the part around lightly and call it good…
