Not sure this is the right product? Email technical support with the base metal and what you want the finish to do.

How to start

A practical sequence.

The included product instructions are the controlling procedure.

01
Obtain the zincate label, SDS and operating instructions for your alloy and intended plating process.
02
Prepare the aluminum surface using the specified cleaning and pretreatment sequence.
03
Use the ready-to-use zincate at the specified time and temperature, then follow the required rinse and subsequent plating steps.

The result

What to expect.

Prepares aluminum for subsequent plating. Zincate is a pretreatment rather than a final nickel plating bath.

Be realistic

What still matters.

Immersion time, operating temperature, bath capacity and alloy-specific procedures are not published in this listing. Confirm these before use.

Shipping

Questions

Before you buy.

Is this ready to use or a concentrate?

This is a ready-to-use zincate product in a 32 oz (946 mL) bottle, not a concentrate.

What is it used for?

It is an immersion pretreatment for aluminum and aluminum alloys before a compatible electroplating or electroless plating process.

Is zincate a nickel plating solution?

No. Zincate prepares aluminum for subsequent plating; it does not replace the nickel plating bath.

Where can I find operating instructions?

Request the product-specific instructions and SDS before use. Operating time, temperature and alloy-specific procedures are not published here.
