Why Use a Metal Brightener?
Metal surfaces naturally oxidize when exposed to air, moisture and environmental influences. These oxide layers can significantly reduce the adhesion and quality of electroplated coatings.
The Metal Brightener removes these unwanted oxide layers while chemically activating the surface, creating a clean and uniformly bright metallic finish that is perfectly prepared for further processing.
The result:
Improved coating adhesion
More uniform electroplated layers
Reduced rejects and rework
Professional surface finish
Optimal preparation for all electroplating processes
Suitable Materials
The Metal Brightener is suitable for many metals, including:
Copper
Brass
Bronze
Steel
Stainless steel
Nickel
Many other metallic alloys
For unknown alloys, a preliminary compatibility test is recommended.
Typical Applications
Ideal for:
Jewellery manufacturing
Jewellery repair
Watches
Classic car restoration
Model making
Coins

Mechanical engineering
Metal finishing
Surface preparation before electroplating
Easy to Use
Application is simple:
Remove heavy dirt and grease from the workpiece.
Immerse the part in the Metal Brightener or apply it using a brush or spray bottle.
Allow it to react for several seconds to a few minutes depending on the level of oxidation.
Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Dry the workpiece and continue with the electroplating process.
Processing time depends on the material and the amount of oxidation. Repeat the treatment if necessary for heavily oxidized surfaces.
