Gold Plating

Is there any technical info on acid gold plating efficencies, if so were can I get them?

Per the Metal Finishing Guidebook, gold strikes may have an efficiency of only 6 percent, but cyanide gold plating baths will be 90-95 percent for matte, 90-100 percent for bright, whereas acid cyanide baths are 30-40 percent. Good luck!
