copper tank problems
Hi guys
hope someone can help me out,purchased my eqiupment from Dalmar Plating,oops on me,not much info. in the so called manual,not much tech support on the phone.Anyway i am having a problem with my acid copper tank,I've used 4-4x6"anodes so far,not shure if I need to add more brightner or maybe I have a chemistry problem I have however started ussing copper wire as anodes,maybe this is my problem,however everything I plate comes out dull and salmon in color.With the Dalmar system I dont use heaters,air pumps,or anode bags,They say use at room temperature and go.So all I have is a tank of solution and anodes so I just put the anodes in,put the part in and turn the rectifier on and hope for the best. This problem first started with some pieces coming out okay then a bad one then a good one,now they all come out dull and salmon in color.Has anyone encounterd this problem before,and can anyone give me soom addvice on this matter pleassssse
yours trully slowlly going nuts.
