Zinc plating

I have got a zinc plating kit but no instructions, whats in the kit has is as follows



A 100w Heater

Zinc brightner additive

Copy cad + zinc crystals

SD-Klene S416 (Caustic free)

Zinc plate





I would think copy cad and zinc brightner toghether with water with a charge (DC) one end to Zinc and other to object to be plated (not sure which side is live)

and the SD-klene and Heater, to clean the object first.



Any one with any experiance??
