The flash copper can easily be blackened or oxidized with one of the various <a href=\"https:\/\/hobbydraad.nl\/en\/category\/finishing\/patina\/\">patinas<\/a> for a variety of attractive aged finishes. <\/p>\n<p>Alkaline copper can be seen as the &#8220;primer&#8221; layer to apply other metals to and is the best starting point for good adhesion and trouble-free end result.<\/p>\n<p>Flash Copper\u2122 produces a fine-grained, smooth, waterproof and flexible copper deposit that has excellent bonding properties. The sales and hiding power of Caswell Flash copper is superior to cyanide processes. <\/p>\n<p>The grain is finer than cyanide copper, which increases the density of the deposit. The fine-grained Flash Copper\u2122 deposit under a layer of nickel\/chromium improves overall corrosion resistance and helps the nickel better cover areas of low current density. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alkaline copper plating with the Caswell Flash Copper\u2122 copper plating kit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":15179,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[1084,1081],"product_tag":[1078,1077,1024,1075,1029,1001],"class_list":["post-15178","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-alkaline-copper-plating","product_cat-electroplating-kits","product_tag-adhesive-layer","product_tag-alkaline","product_tag-copper","product_tag-electrolyte","product_tag-galvanize","product_tag-glue","product_shipping_class-normal-package","first","outofstock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-variable","has-default-attributes"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hobbydraad.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/15178","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hobbydraad.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hobbydraad.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hobbydraad.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15178"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hobbydraad.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15179"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hobbydraad.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15178"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hobbydraad.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=15178"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hobbydraad.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=15178"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hobbydraad.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=15178"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
