LEVELING AGENT

Hello, I’m just starting out with electroplating. After about three hours, nodules consistently form on my ring. I’ve done some research and understand that using a leveling agent would be better, but I’m not sure which one to choose. I live in France. My solution consists of copper sulfate, 15% battery acid, and demineralized water (used for copper-plating jewelry), and I’m also using a magnetic stirrer. Thanks in advance.

uneven plating

Hello. I’ve been doing copper plating for 8 hours using demineralized water, sulfuric acid, a magnetic stirrer, a sandwich-style anode setup, and a coffee filter to prevent sediment, all at 0.03A and 0.05V. So why isn't the plating smooth? There are lots of little bumps (though they came off when I sanded the surface and removed the copper wire). I really need help i don't know why i try so many time

Hello, I need some information.

I've managed to do copper plating on my 3D printed jewelry, but now I'd like to do silver plating. I've seen several solutions like zinc (but I'd like to know how to do it; if you have a good video or anything), and I've also seen silver plating with a liquid you buy; it turns into pure silver on a ring. I've seen that with this technique it doesn't last long. Do you have any other methods or advice? Thanks in advance.
