TLDR
In this article, the authors describe an electroplate-based technique that utilizes mechanical abrading or honing to clean the metallic surface of a workpiece, then with the tool acting as an electrode, utilizes an electro-plate honing cycle to plate or deposit metal on the surface of the workpiece.Abstract:
An electroplate honing technique that utilizes mechanical abrading or honing to clean the metallic surface of a workpiece, then with the tool acting as an electrode, utilizes an electroplate honing cycle to plate or deposit metal on the surface of the workpiece, then terminating the flow of current and utilizing a honing cycle to generate the surface finish desired by mechanical abrasion.read more

Method for preparing aluminum for subsequent electroplating
Robert F. Ehrsam,Robert Z. Reath +1 more
TL;DR: A method for preparing aluminum and aluminum alloys includes the step of simultaneously honing the surface of the aluminum or aluminum alloy in a zincating solution as mentioned in this paper, which removes the aluminum oxide layer from the surface and deposits a layer of zinc on its surface.
Patent
Contour activating device
TL;DR: A rotatable activating device for contact and activation of a contoured surface during the electrodeposition thereon of a metal coating was proposed in this paper, which is composed of a nonconductive, porous, compressible, fluid-entrapping and circulating, fixed hard particle-supporting media contoured to complement the contours of the surface to be activated and an internal complete or partial core of conductive material.
