Can this be used for spraying plated metal findings for making jewelry... like clasps, etc.?

I have used this lacquer on very small parts for guitars, especially parts that are touched often with the hand, like the tuning keys. The lacquer has held up very well, several years in some cases. Be careful to get the spray on all surfaces and use several very light sprayings according to the instructions.

I'm sure it would work, but I don't know how durable it would be. I doubt that it would last very long.

I would think it would work just fine, but don't really know. When spraying you have to be very careful of runs and building un-even application. several thin applicaions might work fine.

Depends. For melting. it is probably limited to an oz or 2. For traditional silver brazing fabrication, the larger tips are well within the range of normal work on belt buckle size jobs. Even larger tips are available.

I use it to make anything from jewelry pendants to paperweights to switch covers. Actually the bigger the project, the quicker it actually sets. What are you planning on making? If you don't mind me asking :)

I'm not sure about that never tried, however, it works on jewelry... so it just might

I have used this on steel, brass and copper with great results so far. I recently cut a large metal sign from some old, rusted steel plate and sprayed it with numerous cans of this. The red, rusted tones really POP our on the steel. I sprayed this over some copper last night after cutting and forming a sculpture. I chose to bead blast the surface of the copper first for a matte finish under a glossy spray. Interesting effect!

I would not recommend these bits for metal. For glass turn the bit at about 500 rpm and keep the tip very wet or under water. If these bits get hot they are ruined.

I believe you can. I am a dog stylist and I clean my stainless steel blades in it. I haven't tried anything silver. It works great! I can't imagine that it would be limited to just gold jewelry etc. It comes with a solution, but you can use any jewelry cleaning solution, Dawn dish soap etc. You fill it to the fill line with water then add whatever solution you want to use.

I have used it mainly for jewelry. I believe that it is safe for anything silver and can be applied with a cloth.Works GREAT on jewelry!

Yes I would expect it to work for your application. I would however ensure threads are cleaned very well to allow it to bond to the metal surfaces.

yes I would say so. I used to do wire wrapping for electronics and these would certainly work there. i'm sure they will do well on jewelry as well.

Good Question! I use this kit for vintage and antique jewelry photography. The company has a really good website that might address this. However, like the other respondents, I don't know why not.

Jose-- The product is a wax, and it's for chrome faucets and plumbing fixtures. My suggestion would be that it might therefore only serve to gum up your items with bits of wax. I think you'd be happier with a jewel cleaner. I have no knowledge as to which jewel cleaner to chose. Tom

The directions say to, yes. You could probably get a couple uses out of it if your jewelry isn't too dirty.

It may work, but I would suggest going to a Jewelry repair. You would be surprised how cheap they will fix your jewelry. This epoxy would most likely make a mess of what you were trying to fix. It has a strong bond, but I would not use it on anything you would want to see.

I am not sure, I am a jeweler and used thid for polishing wampum (quahog shells / hard clam shells) and it worked wonderfully for that purpose. Sorry, I am probably not much help.

I did some jewelry making with silver solder before in school, but we used torches, not a solder gun. We used natural gas torches, but you could do it with a propane one. I think you would have a better time if you bought a torch and some other equipment to do this kind of work. Don't forget your protective gear too! (faceshield, ventilation, etc)

Not sure on this---but it works very well on silver jewelry. Surely it would. You could take a piece that isn't used much and try a little on the back or a inconspicuous place. If you do it---let me know how it worked out. Sherry in Knox TN
