CONCLUSION While the process known as selective, brush plating was emphasized in this article, other portable processes such as selective anodizing and selective elec- tropolishing are widely used in industry as well. Selective plating is a viable alternative to tank plating and to other processes such as thermal sprays when deposit thicknesses of less than 0.035" are required. It is a process that lets you apply a wide range of localized deposits and coatings either in the shop or out in the field with very accurate thickness control. Selective plating is a flexible and reliable process for OEM and repair applications. Nickel-Tungsten Tin-Antimony Tin-Zinc Tin-Indium Tin-Lead-Nickel Zinc-Nickel (LHE) 350
