The Silver Plating Pen restores silver on antique silverware, plates fresh silver on electrical contacts where high conductivity is required, and supports jewelry-restoration workflows.
Unlike many of the other pens, the Silver pen will plate directly onto most metallic substrates without an intermediate layer — the two exceptions being aluminum and chromium, which require different surface chemistry the Micro-Metallizer system does not address.
For silverware restoration, expect to use multiple cartridges per piece on larger items — the Silver Heavy Duty Pen (PL-1018) is the more economical choice once volume justifies it.
