Default Re: Cast iron in zinc

I'm not opposed to doing each side separately although I had tried it before. I wasn't too succesful because as I plated the 1st side the 2nd side would rust and turn green as the 1st side plated. I'd then have to re blast and clean before I could get it plated. Because I was hanging the part vertically, the side that needed good plate was toward the bottom (opposite the annodes) and the bubbles would load up and I just could not keep them off with the setup that I had. Now that I have the larger tank and better air stone setup I may have more breathing room.

What do you use for the zinc bright dip? I haven't done that before. I yellow chromate everything.
