Description: The Polishing and Plating of Metals: A Manual for the Electroplater, Giving Modern Methods of Polishing, Plating, Buffing, Oxydizing and Lacquering Metals, for the Progressive Workman (Classic Reprint [Hardcover] Herbert J. Hawkins Product Overview Excerpt from The Polishing and Plating of Metals: A Manual for the Electroplater, Giving Modern Methods of Polishing, Plating, Buffing, Oxydizing and Lacquering Metals, for the Progressive Workman If a practical man in the plating business knows a certain thing, it is folly for him to guard it as a secret because its value does not lie in the knowing, but in his ability to apply that knowledge; thus, I might tell a dozen platers the for mula for a certain shade to finish in French gray, or rose gold, yet they would not be able to get just the same results that I would; in fact, they would all, very likely, get a little different shade of finish upon the work. It is not the formula that gets the results, but the individuality of the Operator, and his experience and skill are what count. A general knowledge of chemistry pertaining to plating should be very beneficial to the practical plater, although I have known practical chemists to make very ordinary platers. A thorough knowledge of dynamos and electricity should also be of value. Both of these are obtainable at small cost in this age of night schools and correspondence schools.
