Medallion Liquid Gold Plating Kit: Limited, Useful Thread

Summary for medallion liquid gold plating kit Discussion

Medallion liquid gold plating kit is the focus of this short archive page, but the excerpt does not include a real question-and-answer exchange. The only visible content is the thread title and repeated site header information from Ted Mooney, P.E. of finishing.com, which suggests the page was indexed for a do-it-yourself gold plating kit inquiry. No supplier name, product details, usage instructions, or performance advice appear in the provided text. Because the thread text is incomplete, there is no substantive technical guidance to summarize beyond the fact that the page is about a Medallion Liquid Gold Plating Kit and appears to be part of a confidential project-assistance forum.

11/29/24 — Medallion Liquid Gold was discontinued years ago. As time rolls by it seems increasingly doubtful that it will be brought back. If you are willing to buy product that may be beyond its shelf life, there are vendors offering their stocks of it on eBay ⇨

    Readers: Please don’t post offers to sell because our technical/informational site would be buried under spam and traffic in a week if we offered to do for free what eBay made a billion dollars charging for last year, but if you want to buy it, you can post your inquiry as an RFQ, and sellers will be given your contact info upon request.

Q. This is probably a bit out of the usual but I am trying to find a supplier of a do it yourself gold plating system that trades with a shopping channel here in the UK. The products here are branded as Medallion. I believe they are a US based company. Any ideas?   Hope you can help

A. Although I haven’t personally used it, the Medallion System is a contact gold plating chemistry for home use. Rather than involving electroplating, it relies on the principle that gold is more noble than other metals, so if you expose another metal to the solution, the gold atom will replace the atom of the other metal, and the other metal from the contact disk will go into solution.

If you want real electroplating for greater thickness or use other than decorative, you might inquire of Gold Touch [a finishing.com supporting advertiser] or Sifco. Good luck.

! I have been searching for the gold dip solution I once used, and saw a couple of posts asking for it as well, I kept searching and I ran across the Medallion one. I found it at www.medallionprod.com . I think they also sell it there.

It’s not the kind I used to use but same idea.

It’s not a great way to electroplate but if someone is just wanting a bit of a brush up on their items like I was, it’s nice to find it and I came back here to share the info!

Ed. update 10/29/24: That link is broken. Medallion Care LLC still exists, but they no longer offer that product.


Q. We inherited what looks like gold plated silverware but the gold is worn off. Any advice on how to refinish it.

A. Hi, Rachel, You can probably get some gold on it with the previously mentioned Medallion stuff assuming it is made of silver. That process won’t work if it’s stainless steel. If you want durable gold plating on flatware though, I think you probably would be better off sending it to an electroplating shop for replating. Good luck.
