Default Re: Low Voltage

I went through the same thing when I started. The larger acid bath will do better when running the larger parts like the one in the pic you posted. The extra electrolyte helps maintain tank temp. by giving the heat generated more room to spread out. It with the aggressive agitation you have will help keep the part cooler and cut down dissolution. With 6061, I rinse over the dye tank and don't get any dye leach out in the boiling sealer that can be seen. With what you've said and the way the part looks in the pic, you're not far off the money.
