Immersion antique silver

2005

Sir,
I AM WORKING IN A ZIP FASTNER PLATING FACTORY IN INDIA. I WANT TO DEVELOP ANTIQUE SILVER OR ANTIQUE TIN ON BRASS BY IMMERSION PROCESS. GREY IMMERSION TIN WILL SATISFY THIS REQUIREMENT.

ANY BODY CAN GIVE THE FORMULA FOR GREY IMMERSION TIN.

THANKING YOU,

DEAR MR. THYAGARAJAN UMAPATHY

ANTIQUE TIN IS what is known as ANTIQUE SILVER IN THE LOCAL ZIP INDUSTRY IN INDIA. Since the parts are usually of Zinc Die Casted, we require to electroplate Rochelle Copper for further electroplates. Then Bright Acid Tin plating is done, and then Blacken it and lacquer for further protection. This is Antique Silver/Antique Tin. These processes are available in India.
