METHOD, SOLUTION AND PAINT FOR FORMING A METALLIC METHOD, SOLUTION AND PAINT FOR FORMING A METALLIC MIRROR SURFACE OR METALLIC LUSTER MIRROR SURFACE OR METALLIC LUSTER

摘要

A method for forming a metallic mirror surface on a receiving surface, substrate or article is shown. The method comprises the steps of cleaning the receiving surface; spraying on the receiving surface an activating treatment agent containing stannous chloride and at least one precious metal salt of palladium, gold and silver or the like; and separately spraying concurrently on the receiving surface, a reacting metallic salt solution and a reducing agent solution to form the metallic mirror surface. The method may include the step of treating the receiving surface with a water wash treatment. The activating treatment agent may be in a solution form and contain about 10cc to about 44 cc of hydrochloric acid, about 1.5g to about 5g of stannous chloride and about 0.001g to about 0.005g of palladium chloride per 1 liter of water. The reacting metal salt solution may contain about 6.0g to about 25g of sodium hydroxide, about 20g to about 20g of silver nitrate per 1 liter of water. The reducing agent solution may containing about 1g to about 4.5g of tartaric acid, about 10g to about 50g of glucose and about 0.05g to about 3.5g of formaldehyde. A coating process and a method of chemically treating an article are also shown.
