A method of preparing a non-conductive substrate to allow metal plating thereon. The method includes the steps of a) contacting the non-conductive substrate with a conditioner comprising a conditioning agent; b) applying a carbon-based dispersion to the conditioned substrate, wherein the carbon-based dispersion comprises carbon or graphite particles dispersed in a liquid solution; and c) etching the non-conductive substrate. The etching step is performed before the liquid carbon-based dispersion dries on the non-conductive substrate.
