Where can I buy rhodium and plating kit?




Thank you all for the excellent information. I wish somebody would have told me before I bought my white gold ring that I would have to plate mine every 3 months or so. It is just the bottom part of my rings that turn light yellow in color. I find Jewlers act as though we should have known about white gold being a rhodium plated ring. I feel it is their responsability to educate us as consumers.

I was going to ask if someone might know where a person could buy their own rhodium plating kit or machine..whatever the jewlers use, and how expensive they would be along with the rhodium. From some of the postings I have read it seems Rhodium is expensive. I have only had my ring about a year and half and haven't been charged for plating but am going to have to start. They will be charging me about 10 to 20 dollars per dip and the store acts as though I am a bother. I have bought my own professional cleaner and love it so I thought I would try to buy my own Rhodium plating equipment.

Please let me know asap if you can help me.
