So i've finished up my plating for now anyway... a couple of more observations. For the best results that i was able to achieve, when i first mixed my solution, i used hot tap water to help dissolve the Karo, and i achieved my best results with the water hot. If i end up doing any more plating in the future, I will buy something like a fish tank heater to maintain the temperature. Lower and slower yet, .30 .40 amps is even better yet. It seems like the finish is easier to brush off and shines better if you go slow and have the water hot. And lastly, you will need more than one brass brush. They wear out pretty quick. Thanks again Dataway for the thread, couldn't have done it without your help.
