Copper

Copper plating is one of the most common metal plated. It is a soft, red, ductile and solderable surface.

Copper may be plated from a variety of baths depending on the final finish desired. Probably the most commonly used is still the copper bath, which is used for both a finish coat and as an underplate or "strike," followed by another finish coating of copper of some other metal.

Copper is an excellent choice for an underplate since it often covers minor imperfections in the base metal. It is easy to buff or polish copper, giving it a high gloss.

All of our finishes go through an Electro cleaning and Electroplating process and can come with either a Polish or Satin finish.
