Rhodium plating parameters

I want to know exact time and current that should be applied for good rhodium plating. Will palladium plating be helpful on gold ornaments before rhodium plating in order to decrease rhodium consumption?

Hi, Mayank. I think the best thing to do to reduce rhodium consumption is to make sure your white gold substrate has a very high whiteness rating. What is the whiteness rating of the gold that you are plating onto?
