## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this activator go into stainless steel for gold plating**
A: No. This activator is NOT appropriate for steel or stainless steel.  For any type of steel we recommend you use "Woods Nickel Strike" or "TriVal - Acid Gold Strike", to get proper adhesion (especially on stainelss) one of these solutions - along with Electrocleaner as a first step in the process - must be used or the gold will not stick.

**Q: Can i use it on car paint ourside? And than goldplate?**
A: I am sorry I don't quite understand your question. This solution is used as an activator on metals such as Nickel, Brass, Copper, Silver. It will  not work with Paint.
