Conductive Paint, Graphite Conductive Paint for Electroforming and Electroplating, GraphitePaint, Simple to Use & Easy to Clean, No Thinning Needed—Suitable for 3D Prints, Resin Models & More—2oz/60ml
From Design to Copper Form: Our conductive paint turns non-conductive materials into plating-ready creations. Ultra-fine graphite supports consistent copper growth and refined surface detail during electroforming, while laying down a smooth, uniform conductive layer across many surfaces for reliable plating. Tailored for electroforming/electroplating enthusiasts, 3D printing & SLA creators, professional artists, and DIY makers—to bring your electroforming creations to life.
Conductive Paint for Electroplating: A reliable conductive base makes all the difference. Graphite contains delocalized electrons—much like metals—so current can travel freely across the coated surface for excellent conductivity. During electroplating, the applied current releases metal ions into the electrolyte, which are drawn to your graphite-coated piece to build a smooth, even metal shell quickly. A simple way to give your work a bright metallic finish and make it shine.
Made for Copper Electroforming: Our graphite conductive paint is easy to apply and provides stable, high-performance conductivity. Whether you're electroforming 3D-printed parts, resin pieces, or other non-metal objects, a high-quality graphite paint is essential for the smooth, even plating and refined surface finish you're aiming for. Our graphite conductive paint for electroplating is a must-have in any electroforming kit—designed to deliver clean, professional, and brilliant results.
Simple to Use & Easy to Clean: Use straight from the bottle—no thinning needed. Applies smoothly with a brush or airbrush for excellent coverage. After application, let the coating dry to form a conductive layer ready for the plating bath. For best results, stir thoroughly with the included stick to release trapped air and keep the layer even. Cleanup is quick—our graphite paint for electroplating rinses off tools easily with soap and water.
Expert Curing Tips for Stronger Adhesion: Don't rush into electroplating or electroforming after application. Air-dry the coating at 25–30°C (77–86°F) for 12–24 hours, then heat-cure: 80°C (176°F) for 2 hours → 120°C (248°F) for 2 hours → cool slowly. If adhesion is still not enough and your material can handle it (metal/ceramic/high-temp fiberglass), add an additional cure at ~300°C (572°F) for 2–3 hours (high-temp substrates only). This helps improve coating adhesion and stability in the plating bath and reduces failures.
