Aluminum plating solution to deposit Al onto copper [Washington] 

+++

I am looking for information on electroplating of aluminum onto copper. Preferably not the molten salts process.

Alumiplate offers this process, Don. I have read that the bath is an organic solvent rather than aqueous, and that air must be kept away from the process.

why don't you try water base ,with aluminum powder, paint that can be cured at around 500C, and you'll have a metallic aluminum coating.
