What it is and what it does. QLQ-CL3 is an alkaline copper brightener used in the cyanide and non-cyanide alkaline copper baths to give a bright, well levelled copper layer on zinc die-cast hardware.

  • Dark blue to purple clear liquid, dosed from a dilute stock solution.
  • Alkaline copper brighteners work differently from the acid copper systems, and the additive balance must be matched to the bath type.
  • Used mainly for the bright appearance of die-cast sliders before nickel plating.

Buyer Questions We Answer Every Week

QuestionAnswer
Why is the copper deposit dull even with the brightener?The bath chemistry (free cyanide or the metal ratio) normally needs attention first; brightener alone will not fix a base problem.
Is it suitable for barrel plating?Yes, with the barrel dose from the QLQ process sheet.
