FEATURE

These silver plated bead caps have a special coating on them, called e-coating, which will protect them from the atmosphere and help to prevent tarnishing and discolouration.

E-coating is another name for electrocoating or electrophoretic lacquering. The process involves dipping the item into a vat of lacquer, and then electrifying it to promote a reaction on the surface.

This forms a coating of lacquer, which protects the silver plating from tarnishing and discolouration.
