Platinum shouldn't technically be consumed during electrolysis so the coating wouldn't need to be very thick, it would be more important that it was evenly distributed enough to cover the entire part being plated so its protected from being attacked by the electrolyte solution.
Ultimately I'd...
Yes, I've seen the model rocket and wire method; in fact that was what made me think about how you could accomplish the same thing via a more practical and useful method back when they first started using that trick to study lightning. It was quite a few years ago as I remember... they were...
I happened to see a show the other day on possible weapons of the future. I've seen a couple of shows in the past that were quite similar and each time they've brought up the possibility of controlling weather and using it as a weapon. As an offshoot of weather weapons, the always mention...
I'm looking for an easy (or least complicated) method for plating Titanium and Stainless Steel with Platinum. Everything I've found so far seem to be fairly involved complex methods but surely there must be a fairly down and dirty "backyard" method that would work good enough for what I need...
