Want Finishing Handbook




Many years ago Finishing Magazine" made available to its readers a book of electroplating solutions and techniques. Over the years, my copy got lost in the moving shuffle. Is the handbook still available? If available, where can I get a copy?

Hi, Glenn. I'm not aware of any magazine called just "Finishing", although there is a "Products Finishing" magazine, a Metal Finishing magazine, and others. I think you are probably referring to the Metal Finishing Guidebook.

There is a UK based magazine called simply "Finishing", but don't know of a handbook by them other than a directory of coatings and coaters.

Finishing magazine in the UK used to produce a Finishing Handbook, my copy is from 1982-ish. Ted's suggestion that you look at the Metal Finishing Guidebook is a good one. It pretty much covers the things the Finishing Handbook used to cover.
