I started out using their products years ago. (I still use a couple of their products, just nothing plating-related) I think they even still have a picture of a carburetor I did on their website.
Save yourself the headaches and buy one of their kits. Be advised that it will take some practice to figure things out. There's a saying that "plating is more of an art than a science".
