Pankaj, how much is x plus y plus 3? We cannot tell you how much material will be used without knowing the plating specifications and the surface area of the ton of aluminum, and we cannot guess at the plating specifications with no knowledge of the application. Please explain what you want to do, onto what shape of substrate, and why. Thanks.
