What is Selective Plating (Selective Electroplating)?
Selective plating is a method of electroplating from concentrated plating solutions on selected area without immersion tanks. The solution is held in absorbent material wrapped around an anode. Electrical contact is made by brushing or swabbing the part (cathode) with the anode. It is also called brush plating. Faraday’s laws of electrolysis applies to selective plating.
