Help on pink gold plating  

+++ I have had a difficult time getting a dark pink color out of the Red gold plating solutions we have tried. I have seen this color on some antique English pieces of jewelry but cannot seem to come up with it using materials available today. Does anyone have a solution for this problem, or know where I can get several pink gold plating solutions to try? Thanks, Joseph C Jewelry - New York, New York, USA Al Weisberg's "Gold Plating" chapter in the Metal Finishing Guidebook has a lot to say about what plating parameters to vary to bring out different tones of reds and pinks. I haven't read Reid's Gold Plating Technology myself, but it sounds like it might be just what you need. Finishing.com's supporting advertiser, Technic, is probably the major supplier of precious metal plating processes.   Ted Mooney, P.E. finishing.com Inc. - Brick, NJ
