How it's made |
|
|
|
 |
|
|
There are many ways metal can be applied to other metals, in the form of plating. There is electro plating, barrel... ok, you can just look below for yourself. But really, this is where all the real chemistry comes in.. |

|
This key was made by electroplating. Seriosly. |

But before any of the metals become plated to another metal, they must go through a clensing process. The metal is mixed with chemicals to make it more adhesive and in some cases, stronger. |

Also, many things are to be taken into consideration for metal plating. Such as temperature control, agitation, ventalation, power supplies, anodes, and automated control. |
