Does anyone know if it is possible to buy iridium plating solution so I can plate my own parts in iridium?
OR a place that can do it for a decent rate?

Iridium plating solution is a mixture of chemicals used in the electroplating process to coat a surface with a layer of iridium. This solution is commonly used in industries such as aerospace, electronics, and jewelry making.
Iridium plating works by using an electrical current to deposit a thin layer of iridium onto the surface of a metal object. This process creates a durable and corrosion-resistant coating that can improve the appearance and performance of the object.
Iridium plating offers several benefits, including excellent corrosion resistance, high durability, and a shiny, reflective finish. It can also improve the electrical conductivity and wear resistance of the object being plated.
Iridium plating solution is typically applied using an electroplating process. The object to be plated is first cleaned and then immersed in the iridium solution. A direct current is then applied, causing the iridium ions to be attracted to the object's surface and form a thin, even layer.
Yes, iridium plating solution is generally considered safe to use. However, like any chemical solution, it should be handled with care and proper safety precautions should be taken. It is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and wear appropriate protective gear when working with iridium plating solution.
