Default Re: My first Ano - Am I color blind?

PLEASE RTFP before submitting a reply.

acidrain help me out here .
As mentioned in this thread I am trying to set up a tank to anodize parts with a larger surface area than the test part.
I am running the test part at the APSF that the actual parts will run will have to be at

I am going for 0.5 mil's of ano
I am testing for a run that will be 73 sqr inches
my CC power supply can't go higher than 2 amps
I will need to ano at 3.9 amps per square foot to achieve this(correction from earlier posts as I thought I had 3 to work with)
I will need to leave the AL in the bath for 92.31 mins


my questions are:
Is it posable to get a good ano with the AL submerged for that long
what acid Concentration should i use( is 1:3 good or should i go lower).
should i abandon trying to ano at 3.9 APSF and build myself a denser power supply.
