Thickness of electroplated lead

How thick of a coating of lead can you achieve when electroplating. I work for a manufacturing company that produces e-ray housings which need to be lead lined. I am looking for a way to control a precise thickness of a lead sheet.

Electroplating will give you fairly wide variations in thickness from point to point, so it probably isn't the right technology for your problem.
