A method of metallizing materials by coating a substrate material with a hydrophilic composite material; chemically plating said hydrophilic composite material with a metal to render the surface conductive; followed by electroplating a metal onto the conductive surface. The method can be, for example, utilized to produce metallized foams, embossing plates for reproduction of grains and textures, and decorative coatings for substrate materials.
