There is described a method of manufacturing finely-particulate polymeric materials with metallized surfaces. For this purpose, firstly finely-particulate aminoplasts are synthesized from aminoplast precondensates by polycondensation, in the form of microcapsules, microspheres, hollow spheres, compact and/or porous powder, and are then in a known way sensitized, activated and finally provided with a metallized surface. The surface metallization is effected in a currentless manner and may be subsequently electrolytically reinforced.
