The graphite paint contained in this kit cannot be frozen or it will flocculate (grainy texture).  Please check your local weather prior to ordering.

International kit (For Hawaii, Alaska and countries outside of the US): This kit does not contain chemicals as they cannot be shipped overseas. International customers need to source copper sulfate (available from hardware, gardening stores or chemistry suppliers), copper electroforming solution and brightener locally (these can be found from plating and jewelry making suppliers) Riogrande.com and Caswell.com are companies that are an option for sourcing international plating supplies.

This kit contains the E3 Duo controller and supplies needed for both electroforming and etching with copper.

E3 Duo™ Electroforming/Plating and Etching Controller:

  • US or International power supply (Canada-US power supply)
  • 2 Amp, 6 Volts max
  • For electroforming: Adjustable range from 40mA-2Amp (current based system). It covers pieces quickly with a smooth deposition of metal.
  • For plating: Gold, silver and other metals can be plated using the controller.  Simply use a low current with the appropriate anodes and solutions needed for the metal you are plating.
  • For etching: Adjustable power ranging from 1/2 watt-6 watts. This etching feature has a knob for an adjustable range.  The led display shows power:  L1 (low), L2 (medium) or L3 (high)
