Abstract

A process for electroplating a metal clad substrate by coating the substrate with a coating of carbonaceous particles. The coating of particles is applied to the substrate from an aqueous dispersion and then the coating is saturated with an etchant for the metal cladding on the substrate to undercut the carbonaceous coating and facilitate its removal from areas where plating is undesired.
