Electro Plating

I'm interested in learning about electro-plating, all aspects. The materials needed how to. What solution is used?

The thing you didn't tell us, Dave, is "why?". Without that piece of info it's hard to point you to the path. Because the best way to learn it is to work in a plating shop or for a plating supplier for a few years, but that may be an unrealistic answer for your situation. Second best would be to read the plating books on our "must have" booklist; sign up for the Kushner Electroplating School, AESF, or ASM International plating schools; and join the AESF and attend local meetings. Third best would be to get a copy of the Metal Finishing Guidebook and peruse it. Good luck.
