Having problem plating on polyester
January 12, 2008
Hi , I am Seyyed Mohammad Jahed, and I have experience plating on metals.my job is to make arts and statues.I use silver as the material, but I recently decided to use polyester.
But I don't know how to plate polyester because its not conductive.
I am free to any suggestion.
